92% of children and young people will experience a 'significant' bereavement before the age of 16 and 1 in 25 school age children will have been bereaved of a parent or sibling. (Winston's Wish). Therefore bereavement is, or will be, a significant issue for the majority of children and young people before they leave statutory school age. Schools therefore have a key role to play in providing bereavement support, and yet death remains an issue many of us find uncomfortable, difficult, or even traumatic to talk about.
