# How to Plan a Sequence

## To make meaningful and lasting impact through your school's wellbeing program, we first need to map out our plan for the year ahead. Read on for a time-saving framework that supports you to develop a robust and cohesive sequence for each cohort!

### Key steps for success:

1. [Define your wellbeing framework](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-plan-a-sequence#define-your-wellbeing-structure)
2. [Define how many lessons you'll need per cohort](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-plan-a-sequence#define-lessons)
3. [Pick a path for sequence creation](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-plan-a-sequence#pick-a-path)
4. [Choose your lessons](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-plan-a-sequence#choose-lessons)
5. [Customise your lessons](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-plan-a-sequence#customise-lessons)
6. [Respond to new information across the year](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-plan-a-sequence#make-changes)

 

### 1. Define your wellbeing framework

Wellbeing programs come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and every school is different, so it’s important to consider the structure that you’re working within, and where Wellio fits into the bigger picture.

If you already have an existing wellbeing framework or scope & sequence for this year's program, great! You're already one step ahead.

Here's what to consider during your academic year's planning:

- Identify key themes, goals, and measures of success that we can use to track both implementation and impact throughout the year. This helps to set clear expectations for yourself, classroom teachers, and students.
- Think about where your wellbeing-program fits on the timetable. Consider the frequency of lessons within the timetable, allocated time, and how this ties in with key dates and school events.

### 2. Define how many lessons you'll need per cohort

Using the timetable you mapped out in **Step 1**, work out how many wellbeing lessons each cohort can realistically complete across the year.

### 3. Pick a path for sequence creation

Decide how you'll create your sequences in Wellio for the year ahead:

- - **[From scratch](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-plan-a-sequence#from-scratch):** use this when you have an existing wellbeing program or framework that you are translating into Wellio
    - **[Template sequence](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-plan-a-sequence#suggested-sequence):** short on time or looking to align to a specific curriculum? Leverage our existing done-for-you template sequences to save planning time and get started right away.
    - **[Copy from previous academic year](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-plan-a-sequence#copy-from-previous):** for schools who have used Wellio before and are looking to improve on perfection!

### 4. Choose your lessons

Once you’ve picked the approach that makes the most sense for your school, it’s time to set them up directly in Wellio! 

#### Design from Scratch

We know that relevance of topics is a key driver of engagement for both staff and students. This option gives you ultimate control to tailor every aspect of your wellbeing program and:

- Actualise the school's vision for who a student should be when they leave the school - creating a cohesive and unique personal development journey from entrant to graduate.
- Foster strong bonds between students of different ages and stages by threading key themes across each cohort.
- Enhance and support the school's existing pastoral priorities, structures and events.

1. Once you've selected your lessons, follow the guide [here](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-build-a-sequence?hsLang=en#from-scratch) to build them out directly within Wellio

### Time-savers and tips:

If you have an existing wellbeing scope and sequence, you can directly translate this by mapping the topics you'd normally deliver and searching for related lessons in Wellio's library!

 

For ease in decision-making, we'd recommend starting with either the youngest students (and working your way up) or the oldest students (and working your way back). 

 

As you're reviewing and selecting lessons, keep in mind that you can personalise the content of each lesson to exactly address the school's needs! We cover this in [Step 5](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-plan-a-sequence#customise-lessons).

#### Choose from our Template Sequences:

Our suggested template sequence have been curated by experts to cover a range of key themes, so you can feel confident getting started in no time! 

You can choose between our starter templates for each year level, or sequences that map to a specific curriculum. When creating your sequence in Wellio, simply pick the template option with the right number of lessons for your program and you'll be ready to go.

[How to create a sequence from a template](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-build-a-sequence?hsLang=en#use-template)

Once you've made your initial selection, you can tailor a template by removing or [hiding lessons](https://help.wellioeducation.com/edit-an-existing-sequence?hsLang=en). 

**Leverage Wellio to address a specific curriculum:**

- Refer to our latest curriculum mapping guides to identify which Wellio lessons are most relevant for your context.

We love feedback; it plays a huge role in shaping the content we create!   
If you're looking for something that we don't have a template for - let us know at [support@wellioeducation.com](mailto:support@wellioeducation.com)

#### Copy from Previous Academic Year

### 5. [Customise your lessons](https://help.wellioeducation.com/how-to-edit-a-lesson?hsLang=en)

As well as choosing which lessons to run, as admins, you have the ability to customise the content within lessons to suit your school's needs. Here are few common ways to make use of the editing functionality:

- Use the Learning Outcomes slides to tie in relevant school values, themes, or upcoming events
- Add extra context within the Prep Notes for classroom teachers
- Edit existing real-life examples, pictures and videos to better reflect the interests and diversity of your students
- Add, change and customise classroom activities, and interactive elements including quizzes and polls.

 

### 6. Respond to new information across the year

Wellio was built with flexibility and customisation on the forefront of our mind, so you have the ability to adjust your scope and sequences throughout the year as things change.

If you need to add a lesson in response to an incident, change the order to align with key dates throughout the year, or make changes based on feedback from both teachers and students, you can [edit your existing sequences](https://help.wellioeducation.com/edit-an-existing-sequence?hsLang=en) at any time.
