SEND support service - additional online training sessions

The SEND support service have produced a short online training session, which is freely available to leaders in early years settings, schools, academies and FE institutions across Coventry. The session, which is grounded in psychological theory and research, provides insight and practical advice on how individuals react to trauma, how organisations respond to traumatic events and the role that leaders can play to help manage this response and help their organisations to stay healthy, ways of promoting positive mental health within organisations, and how to respond in the event of sudden, tragic events. 

Training sessions are delivered by experienced professionals from the Council’s SEND leadership team on the below additional dates for one hour followed by a question and answer session.

  • Thursday 14 May at 9am
  • Tuesday 19 May at 10:30am

If you and/or a member of your senior leadership team would like to attend this session, please email us at BSCLimbrickWoodCentre@coventry.gov.uk and include the phrase "COVID-19 Leaders’ Training” in the subject line.

A member of our admin team will then send you a Microsoft Teams invitation along with joining instructions and a copy of the PowerPoint presentation which you can then share with colleagues within your organisation.
