Our Attachment Aware schools training and accreditation programme has been developed with our Educational Psychology Service.
The following comments are just a few from those who’ve taken part in the programme:
"This has been an excellent, interesting and informative session. I was concerned this might be 'just one more initiative' when it is clearly not and will be beneficial for staff and children. Thank you."
"Thank you - part of a suite of good information from the Virtual School."
"I will talk to senior leaders at school about what I have learned. I will deliver whole school training to school staff. The resources on the memory stick are of good quality and will be very useful to use with the school team."
Places on the training programme are limited and we can only accept 1 delegate per school. The course is always oversubscribed so if you cannot attend after booking a place, let us know as soon as possible so we can give your place to someone else.
The next training is due to take place on Thursday 11 July 2024- 9.30am-3.15pm

The training will be delivered face-to-face at The Hamptons in Chelmsford.
