The ICE Pack - Knowing Me, Knowing You
​
In over 600 schools in Scotland across 29 of our 32 local authorities. 3000 staff trained.
​
Two schools applied to the Scottish Learning Festival in 2017 to deliver a seminar about the impact the resource had in their school and how it supported the Girfec agenda.
​
One school delivered a workshop led by 4 pupils at the Nurture UK Conference in 2018 to showcase how the resource impacted on their school and supported the GIRFEC agenda.
“At Longniddry Primary School it is our vision to create a respectful community where everyone can contribute, achieve and be proud. Our values promote positive social and emotional development, and this is where the implementation of the ICE Pack has been crucial in creating a culture that is committed to children's rights and positive relationships. As stated in HGIOS 4 learners need to be included, engaged and involved in the life of the school. They need to know that their views are sought, valued and acted upon. Our pupil voice group play a pivotal role in ensuring that this is a top priority in our school with the lessons from 'Knowing Me, Knowing You' lying at the centre. We look forward to sharing our journey with you and all the exciting and endless possibilities that this programme can bring.”

“The Knowing Me, Knowing You resource gives us a progressive set of lessons to deliver aspects of HWB curriculum (mental and emotional wellbeing, social wellbeing). Health & Wellbeing was previously strong within the school, although very much relied on class teachers sourcing activities, and preparing lesson plans and resources. The introduction of this resource reduces teacher workload and ensures progression. The same themes feature from P1-P7 and lesson plans are well laid out with photocopiable or digital evidence sheets available to support delivery. Lessons and activities allow for HWB to be taught discretely or as part of inter-disciplinary learning.”
