Training Workshops
Throughout the year we offer a range of training workshops. Your child/young person needs to be registered with a Rotherham GP to access the training workshops. In the current climate of social distancing we will be offering all our training workshops via Zoom to small groups of parent carers to allow for discussion and ensure the training is person centred. We offer evening and daytime sessions. To express an interest in any of the following workshops and add yourself to our waiting list, please click on the course title links below to fill out your contact details and we will be in touch next time the workshop becomes available to book.
Advocating For Your Child/Young Person
A training workshop to explore the best ways to communicate with practitioners about your child or young person's needs, how to be solution focused and empowered to feel confident to attend and get the most out of meetings. We will also have handy hints and tips about keeping records and information.
Foundations For Communication
This session is focused on the ‘Foundations for Communication’ and encourages attendees to think about the wider speech, language and communication skills that are needed to speak, understand and have conversations and social interactions. It is an activity/discussion based session. (Suitable for all ages)
An Introduction to Emotional Regulation
A training workshop exploring why emotional regulation can be difficult for children and young people with SEND and looking at strategies to help your child/ young person with emotional regulation.
Managing Anxiety
This session will focus upon helping you understand more about anxiety, what can lead to increased anxiety in children and young people with SEN, and discuss some strategies to help to manage anxiety.
Understanding and Supporting Sensory Needs
This course will help you to learn more about the sensory systems and how they may impact on your child’s attention, behaviour and regulation; and will also give you some ideas for strategies they can use to help to manage their sensory needs.
The course has been developed by a sensory integration trained therapist, and is delivered by a team of practitioners from health, local authority and voluntary organisations involved in supporting families in the Rotherham area.
The training is split into two sessions of 2.5 hours each. The first session focuses on sensory theory, and the second session looks at strategies that can be used to help your child/ young person with the sensory difficulties they experience.
