The Extreme Person Centred Thinking Tools are a set of tools to support dreams, build relationships and connections and promote capacity thinking. The aim of the extreme person centred thinking tools training is not to teach people how to facilitate plans, instead it is about sharing tools that can be used to listen and reflect and creatively involve people in planning their own lives.<table fr-original-style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); border: none; border-collapse: collapse; empty-cells: show; max-width: 100%; box-sizing: border-box;"><tbody fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><tr fr-original-style="" style="user-select: none; box-sizing: border-box;"><td fr-original-style="" style="min-width: 5px; box-sizing: border-box; user-select: text; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221);">Online Course now available via&nbsp;<a fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" href="https://inclusive-solutions-school.teachable.com/courses" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: inherit; cursor: pointer;">Teachable Platform</a>&nbsp;&ndash; <a fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" href="https://inclusive-solutions-school.teachable.com/p/person-centred-mindset" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: inherit; cursor: pointer;">Person Centred Mindset</a>Learn at your own pace&hellip; lots of text and video support<a fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" href="https://inclusive-solutions-school.teachable.com/p/person-centred-mindset" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: inherit; cursor: pointer;"><img src="https://inclusive-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Screenshot-2020-06-24-at-13.13.00.png" alt="We specialise in autism in mainstream schools, inclusion of students with disabilities, education psychology, autism education, community building and training on inclusion." width="684" height="583" srcset="https://inclusive-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Screenshot-2020-06-24-at-13.13.00.png 684w, https://inclusive-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Screenshot-2020-06-24-at-13.13.00-600x511.png 600w" sizes="(max-width: 684px) 100vw, 684px" fr-original-style="" style="cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; position: relative; max-width: 100%; box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"></a></td></tr></tbody></table><h3 fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;">Course Category</h3>Person Centred Planning<h3 fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;">Description</h3>The Extreme Person Centred Thinking Tools are a set of tools to support dreams, build relationships and connections and promote capacity thinking.

<h3 fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;">Description</h3>

This is a practical &lsquo;non-medical&rsquo; day for front line practitioners working with children and young people with serious issues arising from trauma.

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 and key concepts of trauma and outline very practical classroom strategies.

We look at what Psychology may help us in our understanding of children who have faced trauma.

We explore the themes of:

Hyperarousal

Intrusive thoughts

Constricted lives

We look at triggers, self-regulation and unpack a range of strategies.&nbsp;

We explore what young people with these difficulties really need from us.

We also spend time looking at the emotional impact on practitioners working with children with such needs and what helps at a personal and team level.

We can all do something &ndash; we do not have to wait for expert therapists to arrive!&nbsp;

Trauma

TRAUMA - UNDERSTANDING BETTER TO INCLUDE BETTER

Circle of Friends is an approach to enhancing the inclusion, in a mainstream setting, of any child or young person who is experiencing difficulties in school because of disability, personal crisis or because of their challenging behaviour towards others. The &lsquo;circle of friends&rsquo; approach works by mobilising the young person&rsquo;s peers to provide support and engage in problem solving with the person in difficulty.

<h3 fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;">Description</h3>

Circle of Friends is an approach to enhancing the inclusion, in a mainstream setting, of any child or young person who is experiencing difficulties in school because of disability, personal crisis or because of their challenging behaviour towards others. The &lsquo;circle of friends&rsquo; approach works by mobilising the young person&rsquo;s peers to provide support and engage in problem solving with the person in difficulty.

&lsquo;Circle of friends&rsquo; is not the same as &lsquo;circle time&rsquo; but many of the skills and techniques used by teachers in &lsquo;circle time&rsquo; can be used to support the &lsquo;circle of friends&rsquo; process. Over the past 12 years Colin Newton and Derek Wilson have been encouraging the use of &lsquo;circle of friends&rsquo; in a wide variety of primary and secondary schools, often with very successful outcomes. Some of these are described in their books &lsquo;Circles of Friends&rsquo;, (Folens, 1999) and &lsquo;Creating Circles of Friends&rsquo; (Inclusive Solutions, 2005).

This is an excellent opportunity to learn from Colin Newton and Derek Wilson the educational psychologists who brought this Department of Education endorsed approach to the UK.

Learn how to build teams around challenging pupils by drawing on a resource which is always there&hellip;. other children. Enjoy participating in a multi media workshop that will challenge, entertain and reach for your emotions. Circles of support are for us all, for life&hellip;. and they work!

Peer mediation is an approach to impacting on conflict resolution and bullying in primary and secondary schools by training pupils to be mediators or &nbsp;&lsquo;counsellors&rsquo;.

Keys To Inclusion

Peer Support as an anti-bullying strategy for schools is now routinely recommended by the DCSF and Ofsted. Many schools in the UK have individual schemes which show good practice within their own setting. However, it is rare to find co-ordination of multiple schemes within a Local Authority , or part of a Local Authority, or even within families or clusters of schools.<h3 fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;">Course Category</h3>Behaviour and Relationships

We like participants to sit with the uncertainty, to reflect on the question &lsquo;why&rsquo; but without judgement of each other. Deeper reflections may span a whole range of perspectives from &lsquo;within person&rsquo; considerations, to situational or systemic possibilities. Health or emotional issues can be reflected on alongside organisational or transactional aspects of what is going on for the family.The better the shared understanding the better the strategy or actions which emerge from these meetings. Quality hypotheses with a close fit to reality lead to more effective implementation in the real world.We encourage &lsquo;loose&rsquo; thinking, a search for connections, deeper listening, an &lsquo;open mind&rsquo;, speculation and exploration without moral judgements. From this stance self-reflection as well as reflection on the situation can produce remarkable insights. The quality of theories or new stories generated is directly influenced by family members&rsquo; experiences and the models of learning, behaviour and emotion, systems, educational development, change and so on that they have been exposed to.&nbsp;<h3 fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;">Learning Objectives</h3><div fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); box-sizing: border-box;">To provide opportunities for:<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Shared problem solving in a safe exploratory climate in which the family will find its own solutions.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Individuals to reflect on their own actions and strategies</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">An exploration of whole-family processes and their impact</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Emotional support and shared understandings of issues at a child, parent, family, school and community level.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Feed back to each other on issues, ideas and strategies that are agreed to be worth sharing with them.</li></ul></div><h3 fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;">Who Is It For?</h3><ul fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Anyone interested in working with families in a way that builds and makes use of their capacities rather than focus on their challenges and difficulties.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Social Care teams</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">School staff</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Community organisers</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Educational Psychologists</li></ul><h3 fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;">Course Content</h3><ul fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">True family empowerment</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Deepening shared stories and understandings</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Facilitating groups</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Problem solving process</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Handling family group communication</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Allowing direct feedback and challenge between participants in a safe way</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Building relationships</li></ul>Process:<ol fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Family members are welcomed: Introductions are carried out, ground rules and aims clarified whilst coffee is drunk.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">A recap from the last session is carried out: To follow up developments and reflections after the last meeting.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">One issue is selected for the main focus</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Issue presentation: The family member who raised the concern is asked questions to tell the &lsquo;story&rsquo; of the issue or problem.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Additional questions/information from the group about the problem are gathered:</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Ground rules may need to be observed carefully here. Individual participants need to be kept focused and prevented from leaping to premature conclusions or to making &lsquo;helpful&rsquo; suggestions about strategy. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Relationship aspects to the problem are explored. Metaphors and analogies are invited. How would a fly on the wall see your relationship? If you were alone together on a desert island, what would it be like?</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Impact of previous relationships/spillage from one relationship to another are explored. Eg what situation they are reminded of? For instance, does this situation remind you of any of those angry but helpless feelings you had with your other son when he was an adolescent? This provides opportunities to reflect on how emotions rub off on other people. The parent feels really frustrated, and on reflection we can see that so does the child</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">System/Organisation factors (Family system/school and community systems and so on): What aspects help or hinder the problem? For instance, does the pastoral system of the local school provide space, or time and skilled personnel able to counsel this young person and work actively with their parents?</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Synthesis. At this stage the Graphic facilitator summarises what they have heard. They then go on to describe linkages and patterns in what they have heard. This can be very powerful. The person doing the graphic work has been able to listen throughout the presentation process and will have been struck by strong messages, emotions and images as they have arisen. The story and meaning of what is happening in the situation may become a little clearer at this point. Typical links may be &lsquo;mirrored emotions&rsquo; strong themes such as loss and separation issues, or repeated processes such as actions triggering rejection. This step provides an excellent grounding for the next process of deepening understanding.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What understandings/hypotheses/new stories can we draw out from the above? Developing hypotheses has a scientific background and psychologists have long found this a useful process when thinking about behaviour and emotions. In George Kelly&rsquo;s words &ldquo;All behaviour is an experiment&rdquo; .Staying with uncertainty and not falling into the trap of jumping prematurely onto solutions is definitely valuable in our experience. The better the understanding the &lsquo;better fit&rsquo; will be the action and strategies that emerge at the next stage of the meeting. Also this process allows for self reflection and exploration at the level of emotion and actions. The group at this stage has an opportunity to ask &lsquo;why&rsquo;, a time for deeper reflection. Hypotheses sometimes referred to as &lsquo;theories&rsquo; or simply &lsquo;understandings&rsquo; can range from reflections as to what a child or teacher is feeling inside, through family dynamics, to aspects of the system or situation that are maintaining or impacting upon the problem situation. The richer and the more varied the theories generated the sounder the likely grasp on the situation. Theories are influenced by family members&rsquo; reading, studies and experiences which will include models of behaviour, change and development. The richer and more diverse these are in the family&rsquo;s experience the more powerful the impact on behaviour and relationships. Theories might include one family member&rsquo;s need for love and attention, the impact of the loss of their father, perceived rejection from their mother, the influence of the peer group, lack of support at school, physical abuse two years ago and so forth. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<img src="https://inclusive-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Image6.jpg" alt="We specialise in autism in mainstream schools, inclusion of students with disabilities, education psychology, autism education, community building and training on inclusion." width="540" height="317" fr-original-style="" style="cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; position: relative; max-width: 100%; box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"></li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What alternative strategies/interventions are open to be used? Brainstormed and recorded. &rsquo;Either/ors&rsquo; need to be avoided at this time also. This needs to be a shared session in which the family member who is presenting the concern contributes as much as anyone. Care is needed to ensure that this person is not overloaded with other people&rsquo;s strategies.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The final selection of strategy or strategies from the brainstormed list is the problem presenter&rsquo;s choice. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Strategies might include: a special time for the young person, a meeting with the child&rsquo;s parents to explore how she is being managed at home and to share tactics, a home-school diary, counselling, or an agreed action plan that all are aware of, agreed sanctions and rewards and so forth. Strategies may productively involve processes of restitution and restoration, when &lsquo;sorry&rsquo; is not enough. Making it right, rather than punishments or rewards, may then becomes the focus.&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">First Steps.&nbsp;The problem presenter is finally asked to agree one or two first steps which they can carry out over the next 3-7 days. It can help to assign a &lsquo;coach&rsquo; who will check in with them to ensure they have carried out the action they have named. This is a time to be very specific. Steps should be small and achievable. The person is just &lsquo;making a start&rsquo;. A phone call, or making an agreement with a key other person not present at the meeting would be ideal examples.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Final reflections. Sometimes referred to as a &lsquo;round of words&rsquo; help with closure for all involved. Reflections are on the process not the problem. In large families this is best done standing in a circle. In smaller groups all can remain sitting. Passing around a &lsquo;listening stick&rsquo; or something similar such as a stone or light heighten the significance of the process ending and improve listening.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Finally the problem presenter is handed the &lsquo;Graphic&rsquo; this is their record of the meeting and can be rolled and presented ceremoniously by the facilitators for maximum effect!</li></ol><img src="https://images.cademy.co.uk/inclusive-solutions/75117aaf-9eac-4bbe-bdcc-bc591d1d6f1b/original.webp" style="width: 300px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; cursor: auto; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; position: relative; max-width: 100%; box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="width: 300px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; cursor: auto;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"> If you liked this course you may well like:<a fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" href="https://inclusive-solutions.com/parents/" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: inherit; cursor: pointer;">Parent Solutions</a>

Why now?

The Children and Families Act 2014 sets out clear principles for supporting and involving children and young people in all aspects of the support and planning of their special educational need. The Special Educational Needs and Disability Code of Practice: 0 &ndash; 25 years provides the statutory guidance relating to part 3 of the Children and Families Act 2014. Embedded in its principles is the need for a stronger focus on the participation of children, young people and their parents/carers in decision making at both individual and strategic levels. The use of Person Centred Approaches provides the opportunity to fulfil those principles. Working in this way ensures the CYP and their parents/carers are at the centre of all decision making and future planning.

It provides an opportunity to engage directly with children and young people to discuss their needs, and plan how they can achieve the best possible outcomes. This should be integral to all planning for children and young people with Special Educational Need and Disability (SEND) throughout their lives.

Education Health Care Planning processes are required to be truly person centred at every stage, including annual reviews, so understanding this way of working has never been more essential.

The mindfulness practices include guided meditations and some gentle movement.&nbsp;What is home practice?&nbsp;Each week we learn a new practice together during the session and participants are given an audio recording of that practice to complete at home. This is because it takes 8 weeks of consistent practice for the benefits of mindfulness to take place. To really get the most out of this course, participants are advised to make space for home practice. (20 - 40 minutes a day)&nbsp;&nbsp;Please note that although mindfulness is therapeutic in nature, it is not therapy and should not be used as a replacement for professional therapy or medication. A pre-assessment is required for all participants to ensure your safety and suitability for the course. We aim to be inclusive to all and may need to discuss your mental health and well-being before being accepted. Your information will only be viewed by the facilitator and will be kept confidential.&nbsp;

<h2 id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What is the course about?</h2>
If you mix up your own glazes, whether just picking recipes from books and web sites or running your own R&amp;D program, this course will help you by showing you what makes glazes leach, or not be food safe, or craze, and what you can do about it.
Much of the content of this course was in the previous version of the Product Safety course, but I have now taken it out into a separate course as many on the Product Safety course do not mix their own glazes. This also allows me to go into the glaze chemistry in a bit more depth.&nbsp;
Six weekly sessions, 19:00 &ndash; 20:30 Also recorded and put onto the course web page so you can view them at other times
The course begins with a quick recap of glaze chemistry and structure. It then looks at how glazes can be attacked in acidic (food) and alkaline (dishwasher) environments, and how you can make your glazes more stable. This includes using tools like Stull and limit formulae, as well as testing glazes in the studio and in the laboratory.&nbsp;
To consider the food safety of glazes, we look at which components may be toxic and at what levels, and combine this with our work on glaze stability. We also look at food safety legislation .
We also consider crazing, to determine in which circumstances it may or may not be acceptable, what causes it, and methods by which you can avoid it.
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What will I achieve?</h2>
