Courses

The Stevenage, Brighton and Leeds courses are no longer available to book.

This course provides:

• In-depth understanding of the psychology behind the issues, with current evidence, statistics and guidance
• Practical strategies for containment in class and for the whole school
• Strategies for raising children’s self-efficacy
• Across the curriculum specific opportunities to enable class discussions about difficult emotions and issues, including through excellent texts
• A case study of an exemplary head teacher’s strategies for creating a whole school culture of compassion and containment, while still having high expectations for learning. Video footage of her ‘day in the life’ interactions with children, parents and staff will inspire.
• Reducing anxiety during lessons, by easing the cognitive load and providing clear structure
• Links between on-the-move-feedback and attachment and containment theory

Useful summary and reflective handouts, a range of video clips and opportunities for discussion throughout.
