        PROGRESSION PORTFOLIO

        Progression in Health and Well-being

        In Llanrhidian the Health and Well-being Area of Learning and Experience  provides a holistic structure for understanding health and well-being. It is concerned with developing the capacity of learners to navigate life's opportunities and challenges. 
        The fundamental components of this Area are physical health and development, mental health, and emotional and social well-being. It will support learners to understand and appreciate how the different components of health and well-being are interconnected, and it recognises that good health and well-being are important to enable successful learning.
        Links with Children's Rights
        Learning in Health and Well-being supports children to understand their rights and the rights of others (Articles 2 and 42 of UNCRC).
        It also supports children to experience their rights to be safe and protected from harm (Articles 19, 33, 34, 36) and also promotes the right of children to relax and play (Article 31) and to have healthy food and clean water (Article 24)
        What Matters in Health & Well-being
