Delivered by Coram Life Education (CLE), SCARF Live Online provides online, live workshops to children aged between 3-11 years old. These interactive, engaging workshops, which are streamed into classrooms using Zoom, help children to understand how they can keep their body healthy and look after their emotional wellbeing and mental health. They can be tailored according to the needs of the school but may include education on healthy foods, the importance of physical activity, understanding how to deal with feelings and how to be aware of and check their emotional needs to support mental wellbeing.
SCARF Live Online complements CLE’s wider SCARF programme and resource bank, which is used by over 50,000 teachers across the country and supports PSHE and wellbeing education in primary schools in line with DfE requirements. By pivoting to online delivery through these innovative workshops, schools were able to continue to benefit from SCARF resources during the pandemic, with SCARF Live Online reaching 763 schools between September 2020 and June 2023 and working with over 132,000 children.
SCARF Live Online has been nominated in the CYPN Awards Digital Innovation category 2023, which recognises projects that use digital platforms and technologies to deliver effective interventions and strengthen relationships with service users.
