The Emotion Works programme and organisation is a longstanding resource in Scottish Education supporting schools, nurseries and specialist services to deliver high quality and impactful Social Emotional Learning for all.
Over recent years our delivery approach has evolved into an online support and membership service which means we are now able to reach and work with a larger number of schools and educators as part of our growing Community network of practice and change.

Creator and Founder
Claire Murray
Claire Murray is the creator of the Emotion Works programme and founder of Emotion Works as a Community Interest Company (CIC).
She is an experienced teacher, curriculum designer and educational consultant with a strong academic background in psychology and education. As well as her obvious passion and commitment to developing and sharing best practice in emotional education, Claire is becoming increasingly interested in building connections and facilitating community approaches to problem solving in Education.
Claire’s current role involves a mix of development work, training, accreditation and consultancy work as well as overseeing the everyday operational aspects of Emotion Works.
Watch our ‘About Us’ video to meet Claire, see Emotion Works in action and preview the range of resources, training and online support we provide across different educational contexts. Finally, hear some great Teacher and Head Teacher endorsements sharing the impacts Emotion Works is having on the learning, behaviour, attainment and wellbeing of pupils.
“I set up Emotion Works to share my work and expertise in emotional learning & literacy and to connect and work with other people and organisations on shared goals. I run Emotion Works as a social and community focused business where people, rather than profit, are our bottom line. The principles of ‘learning for all’ and ‘wellbeing for all’ underpin Emotion Works as a programme and also as an organisation, where we prioritise relationships, communication, personalisation and engagement as our keys to success.”
