Information about Relate

NCSE Relate is a comprehensive, practical resource for school staff that has been
designed by educators, for educators. It is intended to frame the skills and
knowledge that teachers and schools already have, recognises good practice in
place and supports school staff to build upon the next steps.
It provides professional learning, practical strategies and a range of new tools and
supports to support schools in nurturing the potential of every child, creating
environments for students to engage and participate in a meaningful way.
There are six elements of support which provide a pathway for supporting students.

  • The Understanding Element,
  • The Relationships Element,
  • The Exploring Element,
  •  The Classroom Element,
  • The Teaching Element and
  • The Reflecting Element.

There are eight principles and these underpin all aspects of Relate.

 

  • Rights Based
  • Student Voice
  •  Regulation First
  •  Neuro-affirmative
  • Staff and Student Wellbeing
  • Unconditional Positive Regard
  • Solution Focused
  • Universal Design for Learning
