Caring friendships
Pupils should know:
- How important friendships are in making us feel happy and secure, and how people choose and make friends
- That most friendships have ups and downs, and that these can often be worked through so that the friendship is repaired or even strengthened, and that resorting to violence is never right.

Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: May benefit from being in the same group and being given the Activity: Friendship problems – with example so that they have a specific problem to respond to. They could also work in a group with an adult to support them.
Pupils working at greater depth: Could be challenged to give a couple of solutions to the problem including signposting to additional support.
