ELSA PowerPoint Presentation

We’ve developed a detailed PowerPoint presentation designed specifically for ELSAs to share with school staff. This presentation is a valuable tool for explaining your role, responsibilities, and the impact of your work on the entire school community.

This PowerPoint is an excellent resource for helping your school colleagues understand the full scope of your work. By using this presentation, you can effectively communicate the value of emotional literacy support, foster greater collaboration with teachers and parents, and ensure that your efforts are fully integrated into the school’s approach to student well-being.

How to Use the Presentation

• Staff Meetings: Present it during staff meetings to educate teachers and support staff about your role.
• Parent Workshops: Use it as a part of workshops to explain how parents can support emotional literacy at home.
• Professional Development: Share it with other ELSAs or school professionals as part of ongoing professional development.

  The text is editable on each slide but you cannot remove our images. The PowerPoint is a general guide to how ELSA is run so it is unlikely you would need to change the text.

You must use PowerPoint not Google Slides for this presentation. We cannot guarantee that everything will work or the fonts will copy across on Google Slides.

Lots of the yellow labels contain hyperlinks to our resources so to click those, open the presentation into slide show first.
