Adoptables Schools Toolkit by Coram Life Education
A resource exploring issues adopted young people may experience at school, and raising awareness of these challenges amongst students and staff.
Adoptables is a free PSHE education toolkit designed to raise awareness, empathy and understanding among pupils and teachers of issues adopted young people may face in school.
Co-developed with a group of adopted young people, this toolkit links to the three core themes of the PSHE Association Programme of Study for PSHE education and includes lesson plans, teachers' guidance, films and activities for Key stages 2 and 3.

The PSHE Association’s Subject Specialist Lucy Marcovitch says:
"This is an accessible, easy-to-use resource which deals sensitively with the issue of adoption. As part of a planned, progressive PSHE programme, it can help develop pupils' empathy and awareness of adopted children and young people, including the challenges they may have faced. It would be a valuable addition to any school wanting to extend pupils' learning about relationships, and about difference and diversity within families and the community. The KS3 toolkit has the additional benefit of lesson delivery by an adopted young 'ambassador', if appropriate."
