Partnership for Children is a charity who work across the UK and internationally to promote children’s mental health and wellbeing through evidence-based social and emotional learning programmes.
Their Skills for Life programmes, Zippy’s Friends, Apple’s Friends, Passport and SPARK Resilience cover the primary age range and transition to secondary school, and they also have an adapted programme for special schools. The programmes are story-based and teach children emotional regulation, coping skills and social skills. The research has also shown the programmes improve class climate and reduce bullying. More information about their programme resources and teacher training can be found on their website.
