Bradford Nurture Group Network

There is an active Bradford Nurture Group Network  which meets each half term on Thursday afternoons from 3.30 - 4.30  run virtually via TEAMS.

Please visit skills4bradford website for more Information & dates  http://www.skills4bradford.co.uk/Page/14897

The Bradford Network is comprised of primary, secondary and special school representatives who are at various stages of nurturing development - from those who have well established groups that have been running for up to two years, to others who are at the planning stage or who may run nurturing provision in other formats for their more vulnerable cohorts..

Some settings wish to follow a nurturing approach more generally to support pupils who may need additional provision for SEMH.

The meetings offer topical and relevant training to support the above. Meetings also offer a chance for schools and settings to offer each other support and to have space for sharing and problem solving.

New members are always welcome please book vis skills4bradford website (link above).
