SUMMARY:EP research club and group coaching - December 2022
DESCRIPTION:EP research club aims to connect EPs who would like to engage in more research-based activity – of any kind: whether it’s reading\, writing\, planning projects\, analysing data and/or seeking to publish. We are an open and friendly group and we welcome anyone to join us – you can drop in any time. We currently meet online via Zoom. \nEach session has two parts: \n\nA group coaching session (facilitated by Dr Fi Coley)\, in which we set goals\, share successes (and frustrations!)\, and explore and overcome our barriers to doing research-related work.\nProtected time for our own individual research pursuits: reading\, writing and research-based activities. We turn our cameras off and work on our own individual tasks\, before checking in at the end to celebrate what we’ve done.\n\nEP Research Club is the ideal space for motivation\, inspiration and accountability towards your research-based goals. Come join us! (It’s free!)

SUMMARY:Post pandemic anxiety in autistic children and young people

The keynote speaker is Professor Liz Pellicano\, University College London\, whose research has sought to understand and investigate the perspectives and experiences of al group of Australian children and their parents and to consider how some of the more positive aspects of the experience might inform a way forward for those working with such CYP. \nLiz will talk about research on the experiences of Autistic students and parental experiences during the pandemic and there will be an opportunity for questions.

SUMMARY:Introduction to projective assessment in EP practice: House\, person\, tree technique
DESCRIPTION:Projective techniques are powerful tools to gain the voice of the child and explore aspects of their experience that may not be well understood. When carefully analysed and triangulated with other sources of information\, projective techniques can open up conversations with children\, families and staff that can facilitate deep understanding of difficulties\, and help to create change. \nThis course will provide an introduction to techniques and resources that can be easily incorporated into EP work. Attendees will have opportunities for reflective peer supervision and develop their skills in administrating\, analysing\, feeding back and reporting on projective material. \nLearning Objectives:\nTo provide an introduction to the history of the test and how it is used.\nTo explore administration of the test.\nTo develop an understanding of approaches to analysis of the test.\nTo develop confidence in the analysis of the test through practice and reflective peer supervision of a live case. Participants are encouraged to try out the test and bring material to the session. It is hoped that each person will have an opportunity to present material throughout the course.

SUMMARY:EP Reach-Out webinar - Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD): The Parent Perspective and The Role of Educational Psychologists (EPs) with Dr Rebecca Griffiths
DESCRIPTION:During this webinar Rebecca will present doctoral research which gathered the voice of adoptive parents and foster carers who parent a child with a confirmed diagnosis of foetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD). \nTheir views were explored in relation to their experiences of the family-school interaction\, their perceptions of their child’s experience of school\, as well as their experiences of educational psychologist (EP) involvement with their child. \nThe findings highlighted that parents of children with FASD consider school to be overwhelmingly challenging for their children. \nThis related in part to within-child factors linked to FASD\, however\, to a greater extent these difficulties were systemic\, meaning that positive change is possible and there is certainly a role for EPs in supporting this. Amongst other findings\, the need for improved knowledge and understanding of FASD within the school system and amongst EPs was identified. \nIt is hoped that this webinar\, although a brief overview\, will go some way to supporting this. Recommendations for how EPs might undertake a more supportive role in this context will also be provided. \nSign up here

SUMMARY:EBSA Horizons: Emotional Based School Avoidance online CPD course for Educational Psychologists

SUMMARY:Introduction to projective assessment in EP practice: Kinetic family drawing
DESCRIPTION:Projective techniques are powerful tools to gain the voice of the child and explore aspects of their experience that may not be well understood. When carefully analysed and triangulated with other sources of information\, projective techniques can open up conversations with children\, families and staff that can facilitate deep understanding of difficulties\, and help to create change. \nThis course will provide an introduction to techniques and resources that can be easily incorporated into EP work. Attendees will have opportunities for reflective peer supervision and develop their skills in administrating\, analysing\, feeding back and reporting on projective material. \nLearning Objectives:\nTo provide an introduction to the history of the test and how it is used.\nTo explore administration of the test.\nTo develop an understanding of approaches to analysis of the test.\nTo develop confidence in the analysis of the test through practice and reflective peer supervision of a live case. Participants are encouraged to try out the test and bring material to the session. It is hoped that each person will have an opportunity to present material throughout the course.

SUMMARY:Working Systemically with Alternative Provisions - Special Interest Group #3
DESCRIPTION:#3 \nWe are pleased to have Natalie Walsh\, the Principal and SENDCo at SENDSCOPE joining us for this session. \nSENDSCOPE is an innovative alternative provision within South Liverpool\, which supports neuro-diverse young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). \nNatalie will be sharing some of her experiences working within an AP and will talk to how SENDSCOPE supports students with reintegration to mainstream settings or to transition to specialist provisions. \nThere will be time for a general discussion about how these experiences might apply to the systemic role of the EP and space for questions and answers. \nLooking forward to seeing you there! 🙂 \nGeneral group information\nLike many EPs\, my work has exposed me to the challenges of both working with APs in a ‘traditional’ sense (e.g.\, casework and individual assessment) and the organisational dynamics of these settings. \nI hoped that setting up a national working group\, or special interest group\, might enable us a space to share information\, practice-based evidence and experiences about working systemically in APs and support setting-level change. Additionally\, the group provides a space for reflection and peer supervision. \nThe group has a speaker or guest each session who might share their research and/or experiences of working in/with APs. There is then space to consider how this applies to working in APs\, including a discussion of the barriers and enablers of this type of work. \nI hope that the group will lead to research in this area and the potential for the development of a framework for EP practice in this area. \nThe group is open to Trainee EPs\, Assistant EPs\, EPs and other professionals who are interested in this area of work (e.g.\, school and AP staff). The group runs half-termly on a Monday evening at 5-6pm via Zoom. \nPlease contact Jessica for further information or to be added to the mailing list for the group.
