Seminar Series - Social and emotional aspects of learning: Complimenting, compensating and countering parental styles

Date: 8 December 2010 Time: 12.30 - 2.00 p.m.

Venue: IAS MR1

Peter Wood

Educational Research, Lancaster University

Social and emotional aspects of learning (SEAL) is a curriculum based resource with the aim of developing all children's social, emotional and behavioural skills. This seminar will present data from four case study schools currently using SEAL and the views of school staff members will be used to illustrate how the scheme is being interpreted and used. This seminar will focus on the staff members' perceptions of the pupils and their 'home-life' as well as the role of SEAL in complimenting, compensating and countering certain types of 'parenting'. I will be arguing that each school's perception of their pupils influences the use of SEAL and that the scheme may be being manipulated in order to meet the school's needs.
