SYLVIA LUCAS NURTURE PRACTITIONER INTERVENTION PROGRAMME

This is a three-day programme.

(This programme can be accessed in person or as a virtual (online) programme with equivalent timed modules).

Enhance the enjoyment of learning and raise academic achievement by learning how to meet developmental needs and promote emotional and academic growth for learners within your classroom or small group setting.

 

Participants will gain an understanding of how to plan, implement and sustain an Inclusive, Developmentally Led, Trauma Sensitive, Nurture Approach for Learning within their setting.

We will explore:

 

  • How early experiences, including trauma, impact on the way neural pathways develop.

  • How early experiences impact on the structure and function of the brain and how this influences learner behaviour, mental health, and learning and achievement.

  • How to identify developmental needs and how to address these needs within your setting.

  • How to match strategies and interventions to meet the social, emotional, and cognitive needs of learners as part of a graduated approach.

Participants will:

  • Be able to use neuroscientific knowledge to enhance teaching and learning.

  • Gain an understanding of how trauma impacts on sensory processing needs.

  • Gain an understanding of how the Digital Developmental Portrait can support teachers to enhance learning. 

  • Gain an understanding of how to use the Digital Developmental Portrait to support teachers to meet developmental, sensory, and adapted relational behaviour needs. 

  • Gain an understanding of how to use the data from the Digital Developmental Portrait to inform planning of an effective nurture curriculum.

What have previous participants said about this programme?

Just to say thank you for your ongoing support- it is really fantastic to have such a great network around me who are experienced in this field and can guide me. Rumney Primary School. Cardiff.

 

I really like Nurture International’s Nurture approach. I think it will be a leading program in schools in near future, because it is a answer to many challenges in schools and education. The bottom-up approach should be a standard in teaching. To many teachers graduate into their career with top-down teaching, thinking that children show up in class all set to learn. The reality is just the opposite. I see Nurture as game changing for many teachers. It would not surprise me if burn-out would soon be a thing of the past in Nurture schools. Stapaskoli (Iceland)

 

Thank you for such a great course. I really enjoyed it and it was nice to meet you both and to connect with other people through the course too. This programme will have a high influence on my practice. Muscat International School. (Oman)
