Welcome to our Thrive Approach page for parents and carers of Highfields Primary School.

As a Thrive Approach school we are guided by the The Thrive Approach ethos; using the language and strategies recommended in all our interactions with our pupils. Validating a child's feelings whilst supporting them in the recognised routines of the classroom and structure of the school helps them to feel safe and and grow in confidence. We help our pupils to understand their emotions and find safe ways to regulate themselves, which enables them to develop healthy and positive relationships.

For more information about The Thrive Approach please view https://www.thriveapproach.com 

We will share many of the ideas and strategies here, and via the school dojo, to help our parents and carers support their children and young people, by building a 'tool kit' of parenting skills to use as the children grow from childhood, through the teenage years to young adulthood.
