Gypsy, Roma, Traveller and Showmen - raising awareness - this interactive online course has been developed to raise awareness of the travelling communities and how their culture can impact on education and learning outcomes.
The course is designed to increase awareness and develop respect and understanding of these communities. It not only focuses on legislation, but also looks at common misconceptions, stigma, stereotyping and myths. We look at effective ways of communicating with the families as well as improving understanding of what areas within the curriculum require special consideration (for example PSHE/RSE).
Audience: SENCOs, safeguarding leads, pastoral leads, behaviour leads, teachers, teaching assistants and HLTAs.
Attachment Based Mentoring: a relational approach to learning, development and wellbeing - our 3-day ABM course is now available as an interactive online learning course. Understand the needs of all children including the most vulnerable and how they can find it difficult to engage with learning. Learn how to become the child’s significant adult, meet attachment needs by considering the mentoring relationship and develop solution focused coaching and mentoring skills.
Attachment based beginnings - a relational learning course for practitioners working with pre-reception aged children aged 2 years and over (equivalent to 2 days learning). Based on our hugely popular Attachment Based Mentoring training, we've designed and developed Attachment Based Beginnings specifically for practitioners working with pre-reception aged children in Early Years settings. Sometimes we can be at a loss to know how to respond to children and we can feel disempowered or frustrated that we don't seem to be able to manage a child's behaviour. This course will help you build the skills you need to see beyond the behaviour and begin to understand what that behaviour is telling us. More importantly it will help us understand how we can respond differently to support that child.
