Emotions First – Nurturing Mental Wellness in Secondary Students

Prioritising Mental Health for Learning Success

At My Primary and Secondary Tutor, we place emotional wellbeing at the centre of effective learning. Our Emotions First online course is designed to support secondary pupils by helping them feel safe, understood, and ready to learn because confident learning begins with good mental health.

Building Emotional Literacy

Emotions First introduces students to the foundations of emotional literacy, helping them identify, name and express their feelings with confidence. By developing this essential skill, young people gain a stronger sense of self-awareness, resilience and readiness to engage more positively with their studies.

Understanding Emotions Beyond the Surface

At My Primary and Secondary Tutor, we look beyond simply recognising emotions. Emotions First helps young people understand why they feel the way they do and how these emotions affect their daily lives and learning. By developing this deeper awareness, students gain clarity and confidence, key ingredients for a healthier, more positive learning experience.

Practical Strategies for Positive Emotional Management

Our program equips pupils with practical, accessible tools to manage their emotions in a constructive way. Through supportive guidance and evidence-informed strategies, students learn how to stay grounded, handle challenges with resilience and approach each day with greater confidence. These skills not only support emotional wellbeing but also help create the calm, secure mindset needed for effective learning.

Building Confidence and a Positive Mindset

The Emotions First program supports students in developing confidence and a constructive approach to their learning journey. By fostering self-belief and a positive mindset, pupils gain the motivation and resilience to engage fully with their studies, overcome challenges and reach their potential. When students feel capable and supported, their ability to learn, grow and succeed is significantly enhanced.
