Trauma Informed Practice
£129+VAT - Members
£179+VAT - Non Members
This course will support professionals to better connect and engage with an individual that has experienced trauma, gaining an insight into a person's journey, the trauma suffered and the impact on brain development. Science now tells us that trauma can be experienced in Utero, which immediately affects brain development. Further trauma in early years, continues to have a profound effect on normal brain development, which will then determine a child's behaviour, ability to regulate, connect and trust. In this course we will explore trauma and insecure attachments, the impact on the brain and how we as professionals can use this knowledge to compassionately respond to the children we are working with.

Building Support Systems for Bereaved Children
£99+VAT - Members
£149+VAT - Non Members
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.

Defensible decision making in safeguarding practice
£99+VAT - Members
£129+VAT - Non Members
The safeguarding of children and young people has become increasingly complex in respect of the children, their families and wider communities.
Decision making about safeguarding is a core thread of practice for DSLs and safeguarding teams.
Working with a wide range of professionals and other stake holders there is a need for an alignment of decisions , plans and review. There is also a need for challenge.
These decisions themselves can be, and are challenged, often from a position of hindsight.
For colleagues who attended the one hour introductory webinar in July, this session will build on those initial principles with a view to clear implementation and use in your provision, safeguarding and whole school approach.
