SEND Leaders Team
This session is aimed at school staff as an introduction to the Relational Approach. It encourages staff to view all behaviour as a form of communication, and how it may relate to unmet need in the 4 areas of SEND, briefly touching on trauma and attachment.
The session offers some strategies that can be put in place using a whole school relational approach to behaviour, giving suggestions for recording and monitoring and signposts where to go for advice or more information.
Minimum one hour

The session will cover what we mean by ‘anxiety’ and ‘low mood’, how they can present and ways in which we can support children and young people experiencing them. We will also consider the difficulties school staff can face when working with those experiencing anxiety or low mood and how the wellbeing of staff is supported during this work. The session will also involve a number of activities and discussions to share best practice and strategies. All of our training is open to all, but for it to be maximally impactful it will be helpful if a member of staff who can cascade learning and lead change within your school attends (e.g. SENCO, Attendance Lead, Pastoral Lead, SLT). Teachers or teaching assistants may attend, if they have support to embed learning from the training within the school.
