An inclusive way to teach empathy and emotions
Our approach includes 8 units of work that explore the key emotions. Using high-quality books, children develop their wellbeing, literacy and communication skills using our STORY framework.
Including continuous provision, small group activities, story time and vocab training, children gain a deep understanding of each of the emotions ready to start school.
Complete with training and everything you need to get started, our nursery programme is easy to implement.
