The words 'Back to School' will soon be used on advertising all over the place - meant to excite children about the new pencil cases and stationery they can go and buy in readiness. But for children who struggle in school and have social, emotional and behavioural difficulties, the practitioners who work with them and their parents and carers, it can be a source of severe anxiety. What if this year is no different — or worse?
One thing's for certain: if we keep doing the same thing, we'll keep getting the same result. This webinar is an opportunity to think about how you can go back into a new school year alongside children and young people equipped with a new understanding of behaviour and a positive way of addressing children's challenges that can bring about lasting change.
Clinical psychologist Dr Ross Greene is The New York Times bestselling author of The Explosive Child, Lost at School, Lost & Found and Raising Human Beings and the originator of the evidence-based Collaborative & Proactive Solutions model. In this webinar he'll speak candidly about the need for change and what can be achieved when we adopt new lenses and new strategies for working with children and young people.
This is not just for those working in schools, it is for everyone who works with children and young people who have social, emotional and behavioural difficulties and who knows that improving their experience in school is key to improving outcomes for them overall.
