Hazardous Harold & the UK National Curriculum

Hazardous Harold stories support learning outcomes within the UK National Curriculum for English and complement themes explored through Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) education.

Classroom activities linked to Harold stories encourage students to:

• interpret narrative texts
• analyse character behaviour and motivations
• participate in group discussion
• practise speaking and listening skills
• reflect on personal choices and relationships

By discussing Harold’s experiences, students develop both literacy skills and an understanding of how decisions affect themselves and others.

These activities help create a classroom environment where students can explore ideas, build empathy, and develop confidence in expressing their thoughts.
