The Natural Leader Schools

The natural leader in primary school

The natural leader primary school programme uses nature as the analogy for personal leadership growth. Designed to the national curriculum, this is a suite of teacher notes, lesson plans, presentations and interactive exercises for years 1-6. It delivers three, short lessons each term that are dynamic, interactive and engaging. Reflecting the school year and nature’s seasons, it begins in the Autumn term, to build strength and resilience through Winter, moves to blossoming in Spring and flourishing in Summer.

We appreciate time and resources are precious for every school. We also believe in the value of this programme to deliver lasting change in each pupil and the long term impact it has in supporting the lives and success of each learner.
For many teachers, they find the delivery of the natural leader reconnects them to the reason they chose to teach. It allows them to develop the individual and allows the individual to realise their own strengths and potential. The feedback from teachers often makes our hair stand on end.

So we work with the possibilities of your teaching and staff development timetable.

Each of the six modules contains three lessons.

Term one

Own my space (seed)

Know myself
The children own their space and learn that they are unique. They appreciate that everyone is different and get to know who they are at their best.

Take my place (planting)

Like myself
The learners become confident in showing who they are, no matter who they are with. They know their preferences, habits and strengths. They show how to be at their best, look for the best in others and begin to choose to show their full self.

Term two

Tell my story (budding)

Show who I am
This is all about developing exceptional communication skills. From connecting, to active listening skills, powerful responses and story-telling. Communication skills form the basis of human connection and leadership.

Grow my story (seedling)

Grow who I am
Learning that they are always at choice, grow my story encourages the concepts of choice, empowerment and impact on others. Bringing in relationships, boundaries and growth.

Term three

Create new stories (blossom)

Create and cooperate
Become a brilliant leader when working with others. Speak up, listen hard, invite and respect the views and ideas of others. These are the skills of collaboration, not competitiveness. A mindset of abundance that can bring stronger ideas.

Create others' stories (flourish)

Celebrate self and others
Acknowledge and celebrate others with ease and freedom. We practise positivity, gratitude and achievements. We learn to invite difference, let go of judgement, celebrate failure and become relentlessly curious so that we can continue to learn.
