Philosophy for Children Listening to peers

Philosophy for Children

  • Supports the development of language, thinking and reasoning skills
  • Fosters an environment of sharing knowledge and ideas
  • Encourages respect for the opinions of others

Pupils are encouraged to respond to various stimuli and create their own philosophical lines of enquiry.  As a group, they will then take part in a philosophical dialogue to explore their thoughts and feelings around the theme.
