Developing a person's self-esteem and confidence starts from the very beginning of their life, and this helps to determine how comfortable they feel in their own skin as they grow up. March is a month of celebration. We celebrate women as part of International Women's Day and Mother's Day, Scientists during British Science Week, and let's not forget the all-important World Down Syndrome Day and World Autism Acceptance Week. March has an overall nurturing message that all should be accepted and celebrated. But how can we ensure individuality is celebrated in schools? As highlighted by the Princess of Wales Shaping Us campaign, there is a critical importance of early childhood in shaping the adults we become, and this journey is directly influenced by nursery and school years. From class plans that include affirmations, confidence-boosting tasks and activities, storytelling and related lessons, or even the fun, celebratory songs we teach and sing; all contribute to teaching children from a young age that we appreciate and accept their individual stories and diversity.
