SEAL means Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning. It is a very important part of the curriculum and is entwined with everything we do aprticularly as a Christian school. It is taught across the school and the same 6 themes are taught, progressing every year but being repeated through new activities.

The SEAL curriculum is a spiral curriculum that revisits each theme and associated skills. It aims to teach a range of personal and interpersonal skills. Some of the skills that are explicitly targeted through SEAL are:

• To be effective and successful learners
• Make and sustain friendships
• Deal with and resolve conflict effectively and fairly
• Solve problems with others or by themselves
• Manage strong feelings such as frustration, anger and anxiety
• Recover from setbacks and persist in the face of difficulties
• Work and play cooperatively
• Understand and value the differences between people, respecting the right of others to have beliefs and values different from their own.
  
  The 6 themes are:
  New Beginnings
  Getting on and Falling out
  Going for Goals
  It's Good to be me
  Relationships
  Changes
