The IF approach works by mobilising the young person&rsquo;s natural supports to provide support and engage with the person in difficulty. Inclusion Facilitation is designed to create a better life for an individual by the provision of an intense input designed to being about social change. This usually entails a series of visits focused on getting the person out and about to increase confidence, social skills and presence in their local community and to pursue goals and dreams. Uniquely, the work is carried out under the close clinical supervision of a practicing psychologist.</p><h3 style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px;'>What is Inclusion Facilitation Work?</h3><h3 style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px;'><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(124, 112, 107);">&lsquo;We do whatever it takes!&rsquo;</span></h3><h3 style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px;'><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(124, 112, 107);">Usually a Person Centred Planning event would be carried out using the <a href="https://inclusive-solutions.com/product/path-process-step-by-step-guide/" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); text-decoration: none; transition: color 0.1s ease-in-out;">PATH</a>or <a href="https://inclusive-solutions.com/product/path-process-step-by-step-guide/" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); text-decoration: none; transition: color 0.1s ease-in-out;">MAP</a> process &ndash; majoring on dreams and goal setting leading to precise action planning.&nbsp;</span></h3><h3 style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px;'><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(124, 112, 107);">An experienced psychologist alongside the inclusion facilitator would carry out a <a href="https://inclusive-solutions.com/product/path-process-step-by-step-guide/" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); text-decoration: none; transition: color 0.1s ease-in-out;">PATH</a>.

This is just a guideline, however we have received good results using this time frame. After this intensive input the Inclusion Facilitator will hand over to the existing family, carers and PA team to carry on where he or she has left off. This transition time is planned from the outset. An experienced psychologist is there to support the facilitator at all times and will guide all work done by the inclusion facilitator.&nbsp;</span></h3><h3 style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px;'><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(124, 112, 107);"><em><u>Is this just Support work?</u></em></span></h3><h3 style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px;'><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(124, 112, 107);">No!

<p fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;">This is a practical &lsquo;non medical&rsquo; day for front line &nbsp;practitioners working with children and young people with serious attachment issues arising from loss, trauma and abuse.</p>

<p fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;">Drawing from the international research and literature and our own experience over many years as educational psychologists of the challenges of children with major social and emotional needs, we will explore together what the best practice can and could look like. We explore the language of attachment and outline very practical classroom strategies.</p>

<p fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;">We look at what Psychology may help us in our understanding of children who have faced issues with love and attachment. We explore the feelings of being on a desolate island of relational poverty or to imagine swimming with sharks.</p>

<p fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;">We &nbsp;explore the themes of violence, anxiety and experience of being a victim as young people grow older. We look at telling lies and explore how we can respectfully understand this.</p>

<p fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;">We reveal the new and innovative compass of vulnerability &ndash; the cognitive errors to which some are much more vulnerable. We look at triggers, self regulation and unpack a range of strategies.&nbsp;</p>

<p fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;">Transference and counter transference are examined along with splitting, handling projected feelings, constancy and permanence. We explore what young people with these difficulties really need from us.</p>

<p fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;">We also spend time looking at the emotional impact on practitioners working with children with such needs and what helps at an personal and team level.</p>

<p fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;">We can all do something &ndash; we do not have to wait for expert therapists to arrive!&nbsp;</p>

This goes beyond involving young people in plans that concern them e.g care plans, individual education plans, pastoral support plans etc. This training will focus on how young people can be effectively engaged in giving their views and will present a model for use in evaluating services to young people based on the concept of resilience. This model enables young people to be clear about what has helped and hindered them in being able to overcome difficulties. It also provides a framework for evaluating the extent to which services are reducing risk and increasing protective factors to enable young people to develop the resilience.</p>

<p fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;">In this practical workshop session we will explore ways of including pupils who have been labelled as being on the autism spectrum. The session will be values based and practical and will aim to allow the sharing of experiences and good practice as well promoting innovative approaches to inclusion through the design of best practice. Parental perspectives and experiences will also be explored. This is not a &lsquo;medical model&rsquo; day on autism. Our motto for the day is &lsquo;People do things for a Reason (and the reason isn&rsquo;t autism).&rsquo; We make full use of first hand accounts of the experience of autism &ndash; the autobiographies &ndash; to deepen participants&rsquo; understanding of what it means to be labeled &lsquo;autistic&rsquo;</p>
