Build your personal development curriculum
Amazing People Schools’ character strengths framework directly supports and delivers the core approaches to personal, social and emotional learning, including self-awareness and self-management, social awareness, relationship skills and responsible decision-making. Using a strengths-based approach alongside diverse role models’ stories helps to address multiple educational priorities, including behaviour, wellbeing, achievement and SEL fulfilment.
Within each of the six areas, there are guided lesson pathways for all year groups, from Year 1/Primary 2 to the end of primary.
Seamless integration with your curriculum

These practical, time-saving tools make it easy to weave powerful real-life stories into lessons, creating meaningful connections that deepen student engagement.
