The Virtual School have organised for them to deliver a training session - ‘Understanding the effects of early trauma, loss
and attachment difficulties'.
The Department for Education is increasingly recognising the long term impact of trauma and loss for children who are looked after, live in adoptive or special guardianship families.
The children may experience a range of difficulties at school, including problems coping with change and transition, relationship difficulties with adults and other children, and difficulties managing their emotions and behaviours.
All of this can have an impact on their learning and emotional wellbeing.

I was delighted with the training. I found the content incredibly useful and interesting, and I left feeling inspired and motivated. I have given the content a lot of thought since yesterday and have started to change my way of
thinking already.
