PA702 – Developing Critical Thinking Skills<\/h3>\n

We receive most of our information second hand. How can we tell the difference between facts and someone else\u2019s opinion? How can we recognise other people\u2019s assumptions in the information we are given? How can we spot the flaws in others\u2019 arguments? Critical thinking helps us to do this. It teaches us to think in a coherent and logical way, with a balanced approach. This advice sheet gives parents ideas to help improve their children\u2019s critical thinking skills and useful resources and websites.<\/p>\n

PA705 – Developing Leadership Skills<\/h3>\n

Leadership is a skillset that we learn from a young age and continue to develop into adulthood. Leadership skills are used every day, whether in meeting with friends, working on a project at work or at home, or spending time with your children. A lack of leadership skills can cause you to have less presence in group settings, struggle to work with others and be less likely to pursue ideas and aspirations. Developing leadership skills is not something that you can do through theory alone, and practice rarely makes perfect. The best way to learn is to expose yourself to situations outside of your comfort zone and to learn from your mistakes. The best leaders admit their mistakes and are not perfectionists. This advice sheet explores the concept of leadership skills and suggests ways to help children to develop them and find their leader\u2019s voice.<\/p>\n
