Conduct appropriate assessments such as:

·         Self Image Profile.

·         Pupil Attitudes to Self and School.

Offer small self-esteem groups as a supportive way of building a young person’s confidence and self-esteem.  Ideas for activities can be found within Emotionally Friendly Settings and on the ELSA website.

Plan out self-esteem building exercises as part of a group to enable young people to receive positive messages and acceptance from one another. Set self-esteem building programmes can be used. For example, Cool Connections or Think Good Feel Good.

Interventions to support unhelpful thoughts which are impacting upon self-esteem such as Anxiety Gremlin.

If self-esteem is impacting upon engagement with exams and ability to manage stress, try evidence-based exam stress groups which involve positive affirmations and relaxation activities.
