CPD Training

We are offering a network group for problem-solving, ways forward, ideas and inspiration led by experienced MAST Family Learning Mentors and a Senior EP.

To develop an understanding of domestic abuse and its different forms in order to facilitate early intervention and effective support interventions: Adapt teaching to respond to the strengths and needs of all pupils: to have a more secure understanding of how a range of factors can inhibit pupils’ ability to learn, and how best to overcome these.

Staff to feel supported in their work and confident in their ability to adapt their delivery of interventions to meet the specific needs of individual children and young people with social and emotional difficulties. Staff to feel able to overcome challenges that they face in their work through engaging in collaborative problem-solving.

Attentional, impulsivity, and hyperactivity needs (including ADHD) can result in a ‘vicious cycle’ whereby pupils experiencing them not only miss academic content but are also reprimanded and corrected far more than their peers. Over time, this creates a learning and behaviour gap between these individuals that negatively impacts how they are viewed by other pupils, parents, staff, and themselves.

This training will explore Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in the school community with the goal of creating open dialogue and understanding

The session will briefly explore theories of attachment and consider how attachment can impact children’s learning and social and emotional development. We will then learn how therapeutic play approaches can be used in a child-centred way to support the well-being of vulnerable children at school.

School staff attending will understand why PCP can be so effective and have the knowledge and confidence to put this into place on behalf on children and young people in schools.
