Free Premier League wellbeing PSHE resources for Mental Health Awareness Week
With Mental Health Awareness Week (13–19 May 2025) approaching, I wanted flag that Premier League Primary Stars is offering a suite of KS1 & KS2 wellbeing resources to help teachers support pupil confidence and mental health in the classroom.
This comes at a critical time - 95% of teachers report increased pupil anxiety this school year, with 86% observing lower self-esteem. But there's good news too: 80% of teachers say their pupils are doing more to look after their wellbeing after using Premier League Primary Stars resources.
Designed for KS1 and KS2, these flexible, curriculum-linked resources include:
Self-Esteem: Helps pupils identify their strengths and unique qualities, encouraging them to value who they are and recognise the power of a positive mindset.
Building Self-Esteem: Offers practical, interactive classroom activities that develop pupils’ confidence, self-worth, and emotional awareness through team-based reflection and discussion.
Healthy Body, Healthy Mind: Explores the link between physical and mental health, helping children understand how daily habits like sleep, movement, and nutrition impact their wellbeing.
Premier League Wellbeing Stars – A whole-school initiative that encourages pupils to plan and take part in their own Wellbeing Week, promoting teamwork and goal setting.
Resilience & Actions and Reactions – Resources supporting emotional regulation, self-control, and decision-making through real-life scenarios and role play.
