Mindfulness In Schools
I successfully completed the .b Foundation and Paws b course in London, run by the Mindfulness in Schools Project. This involved more than 30 hours supervised skills and teaching development in delivering eight week mindfulness courses.
Mindfulness has become popular in UK schools in the past few years. Research findings about the benefits of Meditation to reduce unhealthy psychological symptoms in children, has triggered interest in both Schools and Health Care settings.
Regular Mindfulness Practice provides young people with valuable life skills, in learning to manage anxiety, feel calmer, manage stress and developed healthier and more fulfilled relationships with others.
Mindfulness teaches us to pay attention to our thoughts, emotions, and body sensations. To observer life just as it is, rather than focusing on the past or worrying about the future.
Just 10mins of Mindfulness a day can change a young person’s life for the better.
Paw b’ is a series of PSHE lessons for teaching 7-11 year’s olds Mindfulness in all National Curriculum Subjects. If you would like to offer your School or Organisation a taster session on Mindfulness, then please do get in touch.
What is Paws b?
This is the primary school version of .b which is designed for children and aimed at 7-11 year olds. The curriculum teaches about parts of the brain known through neuroscientific evidence to be impacted by mindfulness practice. The children learn how mindfulness can support them in all aspects of their lives and relationships.
What does .b cost?
This price is based on the course being delivered in full over a nine week period, during school hours with weekly classes of up to one hour. For longer time slots, after school sessions or to book a block of concurrent courses please get in contact as the fees can be adjusted to fit the requirements of the school.

What equipment does a .b teacher need to deliver the course?
Ideally to teach the .b course there needs to be a good sized classroom that has an interactive white board, computer and projector to facilitate the use of PowerPoint. In a couple of the sessions, when more space is needed, access to a school hall or larger room would be useful. Access to a colour photocopier before each class is essential to ensure students have access to colour handouts.
What is .b Foundation?
This 8-week course is for school staff and parents who wish to develop their own mindfulness practice and enhance their own wellbeing. Delivered on site in schools and other workplaces. It’s designed to be accessible and effective for all school staff.
