Introduction to the concepts underpinning SEAL, Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning for secondary schools

Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning for secondary schools (Secondary SEAL) is a whole-school approach to promoting social and emotional skills that aims, when fully implemented, to involve all members of the school and all aspects of school life.

The website is organised under a series of key questions that are organised in five sections:

• Section 1 provides an introduction to the concepts underpinning SEAL;
• Section 2 describes the impact on educational outcomes and the links to key developments in education;
• Section 3 is about the practicalities of implementing SEAL in school;
• Section 4 focuses on professional development; and
• Section 5 on learning and teaching.

The guidance booklet is the essential starting point, providing an overview of the key aims, principles and essential components of SEAL in secondary school.
