Our 2025-26 #SchoolsLinking projects have begun with teacher training.
Teachers get time to explore our programme & connect with the teacher from another local school who they’ll collaborate with all year as their classes become link partners & get to know each other.

Every year during #SchoolsLinking Celebration Week we ask "How do we all live well together?"
Children consider concepts of identity, community, diversity & justice...& begin to understand the meaning of inclusivity, belonging, mattering and felt-understanding.

Our programmes provide a way to build connections & promote understanding in a world where differences are often highlighted over commonalities.
They help young people to appreciate both their similarities and the value of their differences
