Supporting Bereaved Children in Educational Settings

Venue: Online

Date: 2 Mar 2023

Synopsis: A practical, half day Masterclass designed to help you to support children who are suffering grief following a bereavement.

Details:

Schools have an important role to play when a child suffers a bereavement, providing appropriate pastoral care throughout the grieving process. Despite this, many teachers and schools’ staff lack training in this area.

Join us for this half-day virtual masterclass to understand the impact of bereavement on children of different ages and how they process grief. Ensure that you are prepared and able to provide the appropriate response immediately following the bereavement, supporting a child in their return to school, and offer ongoing support. You’ll consider the different approaches required for children with SEND, as well as the additional support for children who are bereaved following suicide of a loved one. 

You will also come away able to audit and update or create a new bereavement policy that can be used in your school, to support you in this important area.
