Child observations

A practical programme that offers professionals an opportunity to explore the benefits of working with observations and evidencing what we have observed and their possible meaning to the child.  The course will cover skills and tools to use in practice and produce confident and competent professionals who feel better equipped to gain the most from each interaction with children and families.  The course is suitable for those working in Early Help and the Troubled Families agendas.  

The training will be hands on and interactive and enable participants to explore different theories and models.  The training is suitable for all professionals working with children, young people and their families and professionals wanting to make the most of all their interventions and assessments.
