Back to School with SCARF

A mental health toolkit to support your recovery curriculum

Children's mental health on their return to school will impact significantly on their ability to learn and related attainment.

Five fully-resourced sets of plans - one for each of the SCARF values - which can be covered flexibly to suit your needs.

The Introduction to SCARF in the SAFETY unit provides a framework for all that follows, then feel free to choose an order and time-scale for teaching that works best for your school.

In addition to the Safety, Caring, Achievement, Resilience and Friendship plans, the Wearing my Scarf unit has a virtual resource cupboard with:

• Additional teaching materials
• Songs, activities, certificates
• Reflective journal templates
• Stories celebrating all the SCARF values, suggested by Coram Beanstalk.
• Support for teachers
