SUMMARY:Dynamic Assessment CPD (webinars)
DESCRIPTION:Online \n03/09/20 and 10/09/20 \nImproving our Dynamic Assessment feels incredibly timely\, especially given many concerns over the accuracy and legitimacy of standardised assessments when children return to school following such a long time away from education. \nDr Jane Yeomans is a highly experienced and skilled Dynamic Assessment (DA) trainer and practitioner. In these workshops\, she will lead us through a refresher on DA before taking us a step further and breathing new life into our DA practice to achieve the most out of this.   \nThese workshops will develop our DA skills\, leaving us confident in using DA in practice and knowing how to get the most from our sessions:   \n•A refresher of the core principles of DA; \n•Test selection and use to expand our repertoire of tools; \n•How to master mediation and get the most out of our DA sessions with children (including live modelling); \n•Use of commercially produced materials dynamically; and \n•Best practice in recording\, reporting and feeding back DA to achieve the best outcomes from this.

SUMMARY:Therapeutic interventions to address children and young people’s anxiety\, depression\, trauma and disruptive behaviour: A modular approach
DESCRIPTION:Cost plus VAT \nThis masterclass will help practitioners working in social care\, health\, education and youth justice address the complex needs of an increasing number of children and young people presenting with symptoms of anxiety\, mood disturbance\, trauma and disruptive behaviour. The stressful and traumatic impact on children and young people’s lives of Covid 19 has increased this need. \nThere are helpful NICE guidelines on evidence-based therapeutic interventions for single forms of a disorder\, but these will not for work with children and young people who present with overlapping problems\, e.g. disruptive behaviours\, associated with significant mood disturbance and self-harming behaviour. This masterclass will present the Hope for Children and Families (HfCF) innovative approach; the development of a common practice elements approach which identifies evidence-based therapeutic procedures and integrates them into a Library of Modules.

SUMMARY:Masterclass: Therapeutic interventions to reduce the harmful effects of Adverse Childhood Experiences
DESCRIPTION:The programme will outline the increasing evidence of the impact of Adverse Experiences of Childhood (ACEs) on the health and well-being of children and young people extending into adult life. There is a growing demand for interventions to prevent their harmful effects. \nKey Learning Points:  \n•To appreciate current views about the nature and range of ACEs which have developed \n•To understand the way in which ACEs are present at a population level\, and in particular clinical populations \n•The traumatic and stressful nature of ACEs and the impact on development of children and young people into adult life\, including an understanding of neurobiological effects -toxic stress. \n•To appreciate the range of interventions available and recommended to reduce the harmful impact of ACEs and their limitations \n•The development of modular approaches which ‘distils’ effective practice elements from across the field of interventions \n•How modular approaches can be utilised as part of a comprehensive holistic approach to establishing a profile of needs\, and develop an effective intervention which prevents further ACEs and modify their impacts \n•To can be adapted for use across different types of service provision at all stages of the therapeutic process

SUMMARY:Movement differences and how to accommodate them
DESCRIPTION:Delivered via Zoom Webinar \nUnderstanding movement differences in a non medical way can be key to understanding and including people who otherwise may seem very challenging and difficult. All people with autism\, labels of ADHD but also those with labels such as Tourettes have movement differences creating difficulties in: \n•Stopping \n•Starting \n•Switching \n•Combining \n•Continuing \n•Executing complex movements \nAll of us in the world moving around in human bodies experience difficulties in one or more of these areas. But some people have much greater issues – the volume has been turned up and the difficulty is much greater. In this workshop we will explore and understand these difficulties better… practical strategies can then follow.

SUMMARY:Working out sensory sensitivities
DESCRIPTION:Delivered via Zoom Webinar \nSensory super sensitivities are a key area to explore when planning and delivering the inclusion of a child or young person. Sometimes an autistic child may behave in a ways that are hard to understand. \nOften this is linked to super sensory sensitivities. A person who struggles to deal with everyday sensory information can experience sensory\, or information overload. Too much can cause stress\, anxiety\, and even physical pain. This can result in withdrawal\, shut down\, challenging behaviour or meltdown. \n‘The human brain receives all of the information that we know about the world and each other through our sensory system. There is no other way for this information to be gathered. People on the autism spectrum describe their experience in this world as that of being overwhelmed by the sensory stimulation they receive from the environments they are forced to deal with. Touch is like a tidal wave\, sounds are too loud\, language distorted\, vision fragmented\, focusing on each piece separately rather than the whole\, odors often sickening and tastes unbearable. These descriptions have now been validated through research on the specific construction of the brain’. – Gail Gillingham

SUMMARY:Impact of trauma on returning children’s inclusion
DESCRIPTION:Delivered via Zoom Webinar \nThis is a practical ‘non-medical’ day for front line practitioners working with children and young people who have experienced serious trauma in their life. We work to strengthen  understanding of children who have faced issues of trauma emerging from abuse\, violence\, loss and family breakdown. \nThe course explores the questions: \n•What does it take for a child to: \n•Feel safe and secure \n•Mourn the past trauma \n•Reconnect with ordinary relationships with children and adults? \n•How can we start to develop an understanding of traumatised children? \n•What is the true impact of trauma? \n•What else can we do to go about including high profile children or young people with challenging emotional needs? \n•What useful psychological constructs can we use to guide us? \nThis course also explores practical strategies\, concepts and language for key adults rebuilding relationships with individual pupils. \nThis is a participative day that aims to be explorative and practical. Opportunities to develop empathy with the children of concern will be created.

SUMMARY:Restorative Justice
DESCRIPTION:Free/Voluntary Contributions \nDelivered via Zoom Webinar \nA “Restorative Solution” is a non-adversarial approach to conflict resolution where the person who has done something wrong in a given situation becomes accountable to those s/he has harmed. This person is then given the opportunity to “make up” for their inappropriate behaviour through agreement and reparation. An intervention can involve a formal conference\, or it can be a simple conversation in a corridor or playground. Restorative Interventions work with all ages of young people\, and the techniques can be used in parental meetings\, can prevent exclusions and challenge poor behaviour. Our feedback tells us that when problems between young people are addressed in this way\, those problems rarely reoccur. \nWe will cover: \n•What are restorative solutions? \n•Background and detailed teaching of processes \n•Inclusion values underpinning this work \n•Processes modelled and opportunities to try process out \n•Practical setting up of restorative conferences \n•Stories and outcomes

SUMMARY:Understanding sensory sensitivities in autistic children
DESCRIPTION:Free/Voluntary Contributions \nDelivered via Zoom Webinar \nIn this practical workshop session we will explore ways of including people who have been labelled as being on the autism spectrum. The session will be values based and practical and will aim to allow the sharing of experiences and good practice as well promoting innovative approaches to inclusion through the design of best practice. \nFamily perspectives and experiences will also be explored. This is not a ‘medical model’ day on autism. Our motto for the day is ‘People do things for a Reason (and the reason isn’t autism).’ We make full use of first hand accounts of the experience of autism – the autobiographies – to deepen participants’ understanding of what it means to be labelled ‘autistic’ \nThe course answers the questions : \n•What is autism? \n•How do we go about including people with autism? \n•What does autism have to do with me?

SUMMARY:Circle of Friends
DESCRIPTION:Delivered via Zoom Webinar \n‘Circle of Friends’ is an approach to enhancing the inclusion\, in a mainstream setting\, of any child or young person who is experiencing difficulties in school because of disability\, personal crisis or because of their challenging behaviour towards others. The ‘circle of friends’ approach works by mobilising the young person’s peers to provide support and engage in problem solving with the person in difficulty. \nOver the past 12 years Colin Newton and Derek Wilson have been encouraging the use of ‘circle of friends’ in a wide variety of primary and secondary schools\, often with very successful outcomes. Some of these are described in their books ‘Circles of Friends’\, (Folens\, 1999) and ‘Creating Circles of Friends’ (Inclusive Solutions\, 2005). This is an excellent opportunity to learn from the educational psychologists who brought this Department of Education endorsed approach to the UK. \nLearn how to build teams around challenging pupils by drawing on a resource which is always there…. other children. Enjoy participating in a multi-media workshop that will challenge\, entertain and reach for your emotions. Circles of support are for us all\, for life…. and they work! \nWe will cover: \n•The importance of Welcome \n•Inclusion values underpinning this work \n•The Intentional Building of Relationships – ‘Circle of Friends’ work as an example \n•Not doing it alone – The Importance of Teams in developing inclusive practice \n•Practical setting up of circles of friends \n•Lessons learned \n•Stories of circles in primary and secondary mainstream schools

SUMMARY:Ask the children – the power of pupil participation
DESCRIPTION:Delivered via Zoom Webinar \nLocal authorities are being encouraged to seek the views of young people in relation to the services they receive. Schools and the whole range of support services (e.g. behaviour support\, youth offending teams\, social services\, CAMHS etc.) are being expected to routinely ask young people for their views. This goes beyond involving young people in plans that concern them e.g care plans\, individual education plans\, pastoral support plans etc.  \nThis training will focus on how young people can be effectively engaged in giving their views and will present a model for use in evaluating services to young people based on the concept of resilience. This model enables young people to be clear about what has helped and hindered them in being able to overcome difficulties. It also provides a framework for evaluating the extent to which services are reducing risk and increasing protective factors to enable young people to develop the resilience. \nThe course answers the questions : \n•How can we truly involve pupils? \n•Practically how do we go about listening to pupils views? \n•What if we do not like what they tell us? \n•How can we involve our most disaffected young people?
