Managing Anger

Children at Key Stage 2 level often see the evidence and consequences of anger but have not the understanding or coping skills to manage it in their young lives. This programme sensitively and safely brings a sense of clarity and reassurance around a complex issue.


Our programme:

Explains, using the language and experience familiar to the children:

• How anger is a normal and healthy part of who we are

• How expressing anger can be done in a responsible way which doesn’t hurt others

• How unhealthy anger comes from hurt, shame or frustration

• How expressing unhealthy anger leaves people “in pieces”

• The box of skills in managing anger

• Role-plays and activities

• Standing up for yourself in healthy ways
