Such important advice @RAUJLA28 the emotional journey each child has on their physical journey to school must be understood and acknowledged - they carry more than books on their backs !.@jenallotey @JG_DGEtali @kieranmcgrath22 @GarethMcGibbon @rezina_kelly @karen_martin09.
Dear colleagues, please remember to be vigilant and sensitive as our children return for the start of the new acaddmic year.

Thank you @GarethMcGibbon for developing and delivering the training on Interviewing and Skills Based Engagement in HSB for practitioners to enhance the engagement of young people in their assessment and interventions @jenallotey @JG_DGEtali @leonardconsult @kieranmcgrath22.
Delighted to be delivering this training into a range of youth justice & social work services in Derby. We need to understand how each child’s specific experiences frames their unique lens if we are to truly understand their behaviours. This is by invite only @AIMProjectUK
