Mindfulness in Schools

I offer the fantastic Mindfulness in Schools Project (MiSP) curricula, which cover ages 3 to 18 with four different curricula for pupils and an adult curriculum for school staff and parents. MiSP have mapped their courses onto PSHE curricula, supporting school teachers and leaders to easily identify how learning from the mindfulness classes overlaps with, and enhances, PSHE learning. MiSP have developed a pathway to support schools to embed mindfulness within their school community, with the possibility to become a beacon school for mindfulness.

I have been teaching mindfulness in schools since 2015 and have worked with around 20 schools to introduce mindfulness into their school.

Below you can find more information on what I offer. Please get in touch to discuss which approach might work best for your school.

Bring mindfulness to your school

There are several ways to get started with bringing mindfulness to your school. I offer:

  • Introductory Mindfulness Taster Sessions that can be run in INSET days or staff meetings

  • Mindfulness courses for staff and senior leadership teams

  • Mindfulness courses for pupils

  • Mindfulness for parents of children who are learning mindfulness at school

In the longer term, I offer:

  • Support with sustaining and embedding mindfulness in your school community

  • Supervision for school staff who are teaching mindfulness within the school

  • Portfolio work to work towards becoming a Mindfulness in Schools Project beacon school for mindfulness

Below are more details of each of the courses that I offer.
