About the activity
Researchers at the University of Kent have developed a series of drama workshops for Year 7 or 8 pupils which use play to address unhealthy perfectionism, build resilience and improve wellbeing.
The four workshops use play as means to celebrate imperfection, vulnerability and “silliness” and build confidence and a positive mindset within participants. There are three components to each workshop: Let’s build!, Let’s play! and Let’s talk!
The workshops run for 90-120 minutes, and are delivered as a series of 4 sessions aimed at groups of 12-15 pupils.
