ELSA Emotional Literacy Support Assistants

Schools’ experiences of implementing the ELSA programme

This video discusses the following: 

• How are the children identified?
• How do you measure progress?
• What works well? / What doesn’t work as well?
• How has the school supported you?
• What changes have you seen in pupils?
• How is ELSA different and how does it complement other intervention programmes?
