February brings a series of key moments in the school calendar; from LGBTQ+ History Month to Safer Internet Day, Children’s Mental Health Week and World Book Day. To support teachers during one of the busiest months of the year, Premier League Primary Stars has launched a new set of free, ready-to-use resources designed to enrich lessons, spark meaningful discussion and save valuable planning time.
NEW Interactive Game for LGBTQ+ History Month
To mark LGBTQ+ History Month, Premier League Primary Stars has refreshed its popular Stand in Someone Else’s Shoes inclusion resource by introducing a brand‑new interactive digital learning game: Pick a Path.
This short, choose‑your‑own‑path activity allows pupils to step into football-inspired scenarios and make decisions that promote empathy, respect and inclusion. Designed for use in PSHE lessons, assemblies or tutor time, the game helps children explore what inclusive behaviour looks like in everyday school life.
- Suitable for KS1 & KS2
- Works as a stand-alone online activity or a whole-class discussion tool
- Supports learning around identity, belonging and allyship
Teachers can explore the new Pick a Path game on the Premier League Primary Stars website.
Shoot for Success This Safer Internet Day
With this year’s Safer Internet Day (10 February) focusing on the safe and responsible use of AI, many teachers are looking for clear, engaging ways to bring this theme into the classroom.
Premier League Primary Stars has launched Smart Tech, Safe Choices, a brand-new AI-focused resource designed to help children understand what AI is and how to use it safely.
The resource includes:
- Clear explanations of AI in everyday life
- Scenario cards and discussion activities that build digital critical thinking
- Guidance on recognising when AI-generated content may be unreliable or unsafe
- Support for computing, digital literacy and PSHE outcomes
Teachers can download and deliver the full resource instantly – no planning required.
