Resilience Curriculum

Benefits of the EDClass Comprehensive Resilience Curriculum

The EDClass platform, in conjunction with the dedicated support of our team of teachers, SEND leads, Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSLs), Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads (DDSLs) and support workers, provides a comprehensive resilience curriculum – alongside our PSHE curriculum – designed to equip learners with the skills and strategies necessary to thrive in an era characterised by uncertainties, disruptions, and increasing interdependence.

Our approach is multifaceted, focusing on the development of key personal attributes and the provision of robust support systems.

EDClass’s focus on engagement and the structure of intervention meetings with our dedicated teams (teachers, SEND, and safeguarding) significantly enhances the effectiveness of the Nurture, Resilience, and Wellbeing curriculum.

These interactions provide a crucial layer of personalised support that complements the platform’s resources and activities.

Building Students' Resilience, Skill Development, Mindset, and Attitude

Adaptability

The online learning environment itself encourages flexibility and adaptability as students learn to manage their learning independently and adjust to different learning formats.

Self-efficacy

Through personalised learning pathways and achievable goals, learners experience success, building a belief in their own capabilities and a positive attitude towards learning.

Optimism and a Growth Mindset

EDClass promote a belief that abilities can be developed through effort and learning, encouraging learners to embrace challenges and persevere through setbacks.

Improved Skill Development

The combination of the platform's interactive tools and personalised guidance in meetings fosters the development of crucial skills:

Social skills: Collaborative activities on the platform and structured discussions during meetings promote communication, empathy, and relationship building.
Coping skills: Learners develop strategies for managing stress, regulating emotions, and problem-solving through the curriculum and with the support of staff.
Emotional literacy: Meetings provide opportunities for learners to explore and express their emotions, enhancing their ability to understand and articulate their feelings.
Problem-solving skills: The platform presents challenges and scenarios that require critical thinking and creative solutions, building learners' ability to navigate complex situations.
