What teachers say

D. Wilson - Lea Farm Junior School "I'm very excited about this and I can't wait to introduce this to my children. There just isn't enough colourful, motivating material around like this. I know my children especially those with SEN and other needs will be totally grabbed by this."

Anne Timothy, Head of Study Support, Durham County Council: "I think the uniqueness of the Dot programme is the opportunity it presents to link it into other subjects and areas of Citizenship such as racism and bullying.plus the fact that there's the web site. Dot and her friends are imaginative characters, so the children can identify with them. And the resources don't indicate anywhere that the programme is targeted, so all children enjoy doing it. And it's those children who perhaps we really want to target who will benefit most. The pilot we did within Durham was in an out of hours setting, with a variety of different groups of children ... but the most unexpected result was with a group of children with mental health problems. They were taken through the Missdorothy programme and even the educational psychologist said how amazed they were with the progress the children were making through the books."

Sophie, Elchester Primary School: "The course has been very useful, especially the look at the website. The children and I love the booklets that they are given to work in, lovely bright colours. The change this has made to certain children, the confidence it has given them has been amazing and probably the most important thing we can give them in primary school."

Elizabeth Ivil, Oakley Cross Primary School: "Very impressed with project especially the links to I.C.T. Teachers will be excited at this new approach to meeting some of the demanding I.C.T programmes of study. Thank you for this cross-curricular approach to emotional learning."
