Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning (SEAL)

Following a couple of requests for information about the SEAL programme, students with an interest in this topic should take a look at the SEAL section of the National Strategies website, which provides a comprehensive overview of the rationale behind the project and resources for use within schools.

A study of the SEAL programme with the title Primary Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning (SEAL): Evaluation of Small Group Work was published in December last year; however, the overall conclusion was that it has had little or no effect on children's behaviour.
