National SCERTS  Practitioner Network

Please note, this network does not provide the recommended training in SCERTS.  

 

Relational Approaches National Network

As part of the work in relation to the BISSR National Action Plan, the Inclusion, Wellbeing and Equalities team are creating a network of Local Authority education leads with responsibility for the following areas: nurture, ACES, relational and restorative approaches, trauma-informed practice and Compassionate and Connected Communities.  We recognise the valuable role that national networking can have to share developments, challenges and ideas from our local authorities to improve the support we give to our staff, children and young people.  We recognise the inter-related nature of the topics listed and believe that one network will promote greater connectedness across this work. 

The plan is to meet online 4 times per year. Breakout rooms will be used to facilitate collaborative discussion. If you are a Local Authority lead in one or more of these areas please complete this short form to sign you up for the network. The first date is the 5th of February 2025 online from 9.30am until 12.30pm.

This expanding network of professionals working with learners with Complex Needs across the country. This is a friendly group who for years have often felt isolated, without others to work with and discuss issues with colleagues who fully understand what they do to meet the needs of their cohort of learners. This network aims to connect all of you together, share the fantastic work you do and provide joint sessions to explore common themes for discussion and/or training. 

All sessions are voluntary and are responsive to requests from members and supported by members to share what they are doing. A GLOW site helps connections and networking opportunities to link with others/share resources and work on those priorities together.  

If you would like to join this network, please dig out your GLOW password and complete this form.
