Small Steps for Peace – KS2

WHAT IS SMALL STEPS FOR PEACE?

Small Steps for Peace is a programme of interactive peace education for Key Stage 2 pupils, developed by the Tim Parry Johnathan Ball Peace Foundation. It’s designed to be delivered by teachers to class-sized groups of primary school pupils in six two-hour sessions. But it can also be adapted to suit learner needs and other teaching objectives—many of the activities have direct links to the Key Stage 2 National Curriculum Learning Outcomes for Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural Education (SMSC).

WHAT ARE THE OVERALL LEARNING OUTCOMES?

Small Steps will help young learners to:

understand the causes of conflict, how it can be driven by diverse needs and wants and how it can be entrenched between in-groups of ‘us’ and out-groups of ‘them’.
understand the impact of conflict, gaining awareness of how they and others feel in conflict situations and the consequences of violence.
develop active listening skills.
build emotional intelligence, recognising and regulating their own emotional responses, empathising with others, and growing their confidence and capacity to communicate.
practice problem solving in creative ways and in collaborative group settings.
