PATHS is an evidence based, social and emotional programme for all pupils aged 5 to 11 designed to improve:
- self-control
- emotional understanding
- positive self esteem
- relationship skills
- interpersonal problem-solving skills
Norfolk PATHS schools have seen:
- 21.3% to 33% improvement in social and emotional competence
- 20.4% to 25.7% improvement in pro-social skills
- 17.4% improvement in concentration and attention
Schools are supported to develop a whole school approach through:
- Structured PATHS curriculum with regular support from a PATHS Coach
- Training for all staff and support for lunchtime staff
- Parent and carer engagement
- Networking opportunities to share good practice
- Support to evaluate the impact of PATHS on pupils
