Preventative Curriculum
In Derryboy Primary School we teach and promote a preventative curriculum to help off set any unwanted, negative experiences in school. As well as permeating our whole school ethos and the relationships at every level within our school, we want our children to be well equipped to deal with such experiences if they occur by ensuring they are well-informed and have already explored scenarios and feelings surrounding certain experiences.
For example in..
Circletime
Health and well-being activities - daily mile, exercise, active clubs, calming and breathing activities, sports activities
Knowing who they can talk to in school and keeping
them safe
Celebrating and raising awareness e.g. Safer Internet
Day, Safer Schools App, Anti-Bullying Week, Children's Mental Health Week
School Values and promoting resilience
Inviting visitors into school about staying safe-PSNI,
NSPCC etc
Listening to their views
