This timely resource presents Jenny Mosley's acclaimed Circle Time model specifically adapted for secondary education, offering a structured, powerful and compassionate approach to rebuilding human connection among teenagers. In an era of increasing digital isolation and mental health challenges, Mosley provides educators with practical tools to create spaces where students feel truly seen, heard, and valued.
Building on decades of pioneering work in both primary and secondary schools, inside this book, you will find:
• A complete framework for implementing Circle Time in secondary settings—from Year 7 through to Year 11.
• Practical, age-appropriate activities, games, and discussion prompts that engage even the most reluctant teenagers.
• Behaviour strategies rooted in restorative practice—helping students take responsibility and rebuild relationships.
• Tools to build a positive school ethos, improve classroom climate, and boost mental health and motivation.
• Real-life examples and success stories that show the power of Circle Time in action—from disengaged teens becoming peer mentors to entire year groups forming tighter bonds.
Endorsed by empirical research which links social-emotional learning to academic success, the approach balances emotional literacy with practical skill development. Jenny Mosley doesn’t just offer a programme—she offers a philosophy: one where students are not just taught but truly seen, where emotional literacy is not a luxury but a necessity, and where schools become safe spaces for teenagers to grow into capable, compassionate adults.
This essential guide is invaluable for heads of year, form tutors, PSHE leads, and classroom teachers committed to nurturing both academic achievement and emotional development. School counselors, educational psychologists, and wellbeing coordinators will also find practical strategies they can immediately implement to support teenagers in developing the communication skills and emotional resilience needed to thrive in today's complex world.
