‘The course has been really informative! The practical way it was run has allowed me to get a feel for P4C much more. I feel confident going away to put this learning into practice.’

Philosophy for Children (P4C) has long been valued by teachers as a method for developing critical and creative thinking skills through real dialogue about issues that matter to children. P4C aims to create a caring classroom situation where children:
- learn to listen and respect each other
- learn to be clear in their thinking and to make responsible and more deliberate judgements
- learn to be more thoughtful by basing their decisions and actions on reasons
