Personal Social and Emotional Development (PSED) supports children to have a positive sense of themselves, respect for others, social skills, emotional well-being and a positive disposition to learning. These are all crucial for school readiness.

PSED is about children:

• developing confidence and independence
• making friends and getting on with others
• learning about right and wrong
• self-regulating their emotions
• understanding about their own and others’ feelings
• feeling good about themselves
• being interested, excited and motivated about their play and learning
• gaining self-respect for themselves
• developing respect for their own culture and beliefs and those of others
