Our vision to "Learn more, see more and be more" continues: The Thrive Approach at Keyingham Primary School

We are thrilled to share some exciting news about our commitment to supporting the emotional well-being of all our children.  We have been working to develop the Thrive Approach, a well-researched and effective way to support children to flourish socially and emotionally, ensuring they feel safe, supported, and ready to learn.

As part of this commitment, we now have two fully qualified, licenced Thrive practitioners – Mrs White and Mrs Clarkson. They have completed their training and are already implementing Thrive strategies across the school alongside recent whole staff training. Working within the Thrive Approach is key to helping children develop the emotional resilience and confidence they need to succeed. 

To create the best possible environment for our children, we are also investing in more breakout spaces within the school. These carefully designed areas will provide a sense of comfort and security, allowing children to self-regulate and feel supported in times of need. We are especially excited to announce the development of a brand-new Thrive Room, a dedicated space where children can engage in activities designed to nurture their emotional well-being.

This is just the beginning of our journey. Over the coming months, we will continue to embed the Thrive Approach throughout the school and work towards achieving the ‘Excellence in Thrive’ Award. This prestigious recognition will highlight our dedication to providing an environment where every child can feel valued, understood, and supported.

We look forward to keeping you updated on our progress. Thank you for your continued support in making our school a place where every child can truly thrive and be the best version of themselves!
