Emotional Intelligence can be defined as ‘ the capacity for recognising our own feelings and those of others, for motivating ourselves, and for managing emotions well in ourselves and in our relationships’. ‘Emotional Intelligence –Why it can matter more than IQ– Daniel Goleman’
Whilst some aspects of Emotional Intelligence can be seen as the consequences of children’s experiences from birth it is also vital to recognise that some aspects can be taught. Teaching children to develop emotional intelligence creates opportunities for self determination as well as social awareness, key aspects of PSHE and citizenship.

The box can be used within a class or ideally form the basis of a whole school approach to developing emotional intelligence for children.
