Identity and Belonging in Adolescence

CONCEPTUAL
Personal & Social DevelopmentEmotional Literacy|Ages 12—13|ID: mt_p-8Hlf6_9k

Understand that adolescence involves active construction of identity, leading to emotional complexity around questions of 'who am I?'; explore the emotional dynamics of belonging to multiple groups simultaneously (family, peer group, cultural or religious identity); understand social comparison and its intensification through social media; recognise that identity is not fixed and that uncertainty about identity is normal, not a sign of failure; develop language for navigating emotions tied to group membership and personal values
