On this Licensed Practitioner course, you will find out why troubled and vulnerable children behave the way they do and what you can do to support them. In particular, you will learn the importance of relationship and how you can adapt your ways of being with the child to facilitate positive change in them.
To support you in this, Thrive-Online will enable you to profile the social and emotional development of whole classes as well as individual children in order to identify their underlying emotional needs. Based on this, you will then be able to select from a range of practical strategies and activities that you can use to help them.
By the end of the course, you will feel more confident to deal with disruptive and troubling behaviour and you will find stress levels reduce as relationships between staff and children improve.
The course is delivered through a combination of online and trainer led webinar learning, spread out over a period of approximately 14-17 weeks, depending on the delivery format you choose. The content of the course includes:
- the development and functioning of the brain and nervous system
- the six developmental stages of social and emotional development
- the principles of attachment theory
- key strategies for building supportive relationships
- the role of the arts, play and creativity in supporting social and emotional development
- how fear, anger, loss, change, separation, bereavement and joy can interrupt learning
