Welcome back to a new term!
The Heads Up Kids Team are ready for a new year developing and delivering our wellbeing programmes in primary schools. We are excited to meet new schools joining us this year, as well as working with existing schools.
As we look back at 2024 – 2025 and see the positive outputs and impact that the programmes have had for children and teachers, we are so pleased to be funded to deliver this great work again in 2025 – 2026.
Do get in touch if you would like to be part of Heads Up Kids this year either benefitting from the programmes or supporting us financially to deliver them .
We look forward to it all!
Welcome to Heads Up Kids!
Heads Up Kids is a charity promoting positive mental health through our social and emotional wellbeing curriculum. The programmes for Reception through to Year 6 are delivered in the classroom by the class teacher.
We aim to provide high quality resources and increase access to wellbeing provision through our subsidised programmes. All of the programmes are mapped against PSHE requirements and can easily be slotted into any scheme of work.
Written by Andy Hugh and Claire Godley, the overall aim is to create a shared emotional language in the classroom. We believe that; “in a classroom where children have the words to express their feelings and feel confident to do so, those children will be more resilient, more able to solve problems, they will have more empathy for others and be better able to work collaboratively”.
We train teachers to facilitate the programmes in the classroom and embed wellbeing into the culture of the class. Teachers attend training and are then given access to the programmes and resources.
We believe that all teachers can be teachers of wellbeing.
