"I can honestly say that it was, by far, the best, most insightful, profoundly moving, expertly evidenced, endlessly interesting and fascinating, relevant and (as I’m sure will be testified to before long) most useful training I have received in my teaching career." 2020 Delegate

VISION AND AIMS:

On average children wait 10 years to get help for a mental health problem. (The Centre for Mental Health Report: Missed Opportunities: Children and Young People’s Mental Health 2016). So, schools are left holding the baby. Yet research shows that many teachers feel frightened and de-skilled about working with child mental health issues. Two out of three teachers for example, are worried that if they talk to children who self-harm, it will make things worse. (Talking Self Harm Report, 2015) Furthermore 50 percent of teachers say their job is causing them severe stress (mostly because of children’s mental health problems) and many are leaving the profession as a result.

The session will ensure that staff have the knowledge, skills and understanding to optimise the well-being of both adults and children/young people in their school/setting and support this crucial cultural change. This training is supported by over 1000 evidence-based research studies, is designed to empower staff to understand the needs of all children and teenagers, including those who have suffered a trauma or have a mental health issue. Delegates will also learn what happens in Trauma and Mental Health Informed schools/settings in terms of key relational approaches and interventions to positively impact the whole school/setting culture.

The full day option offers more opportunity to explore practical skills and experiential learning.

WHAT YOU WILL GAIN FROM ATTENDING:

  • The neuroscience and psychology of child and adolescent mental health and mental ill-health: what all staff need to know.
  • Model One: ACE (Adverse Childhood Experience) study and Protective Factors in schools that change children’s lives.
  • Model Two: Professor Jaak Panksepp’s model of mental health, mental ill-health, and theory of change.
  • Model Three: PROTECT/RELATE/REGULATE/REFLECT and how this informs school policy, procedures and school culture and ethos.
  • The role of emotionally available adults in schools: Benefit to staff and students.
  • ‘I wish my teacher knew.’ They want to tell us. Are we ready to hear?
