This intervention looks at a child’s central family; who they are and how they all work together. The aim of the intervention is to educate both the adult and the child about the benefits of positive relationships and how negative relationships can have a destructive impact upon their lives, now and in the future. The last session is titled ‘How to do it better’, after having considered all aspects of relationships it’s about how best to keep relationships of any kind ‘healthy’. PARENTAL NOTES This intervention will be a difficult one because it asks questions of the family/ adult not just the child. In order to effect change we must consider our part in any one situation; in one of the most important relationships of your life we can help or hinder. These sessions are not to just highlight the issues but ultimately effect positive change; it is not to apportion blame!! The ultimate aim is to effect a positive change in family relationships which will ultimately lead to positive change in the life and future of the child. WHY THIS INTERVENTION? Does your child exhibit any of the following behaviours? (Some may not be connected to the issues within the family or they may be, children often use different coping methods when faced with difficulties) Self injury/harm Withdrawn/loner Openly expresses alcohol and drug use Expresses worthlessness/ fear/ anxiety Difficult relationships at home LENGTH OF INTERVENTION The sessions are divided into roughly one hour x 6 weeks plus follow up session, however, depending on the age and concentration level of your child you could split the sessions further. Each session will have 3 worksheets to complete, you could do one at a time. BASIC OVERVIEW OF THE INTERVENTION SESSIONS Who am I? Firstly how do you view yourselves? Does it provide a solid foundation for other relationships? What’s my starting point? Who’s with me? Relationships which you have with your family; who you both trust and how you both interact, the good, bad and the ugly. How do they do it? This session looks at situations from the outside and asks what works, difficulties in families and what makes a good family dynamic? Trouble shooting It’s not what you say…It’s how you say it; often we deal with situations in the wrong way, which often leads to trouble. How do relationships affect feelings? Relationships gone wrong, this session covers aspects of relationship conflict and how feelings affect relationships positively and negatively. How to do it better What’s the plan? Looking at the future and how to deal better with interactions, making better decisions and building solid relationships. Follow up - Reviewing progress made and celebrations of successes, keep on talking!

This course is designed for those students who struggle to control their emotions, their outbursts and their anger. It is about controlling emotions, which adversely affect the child, how do they react to particular situations? Do they have a cycle of destructive behaviour which they need help changing? Structured so that they are presented with examples of particular scenarios, then asked to work out the best responses to them. Basically we are looking to alter their automatic responses and replace them with more positive reactions to life’s events. PARENTAL NOTES This is a straight forward programme on the one hand, a child with obvious anger issues, but in order that they don’t live with that label or indeed live up to that label it is a difficult programme. There are obviously references to anger, but I have tried to envelop it into different issues and aspects of life so that it is more oblique and everything isn’t geared up around just anger. There are many facets to the programme and the development of the child through it. WHY THIS INTERVENTION Does your child exhibit any of the following behaviours? (Some may not be connected to the issues within the family or they may be, children often use different coping methods when faced with difficult ties) Out bursts at staff or pupils at school Outbursts involving injury to themselves (punching doors, glass etc) Emotional outbursts at odds with the situation Destructive behavior at home Challenging adults Angry threatening outbursts Tears and remorse after ‘events’ LENGTH OF INTERVENTION The sessions are divided into roughly one hour x 6 weeks, plus follow up session, however, depending on the age and concentration level of your child you could split the sessions further. Each session will have 3 or 4 worksheets to complete. BASIC OVERVIEW OF THE INTERVENTION SESSIONS !. In control? This session looks at where they are now at the beginning of the intervention, how do they feel about themselves and their issues? 2. Whose looking at me? Looking at different perspectives of their personality; considering attitudes and feelings about anger in particular. 3. Cycles of events This session looks at their cycle of behaviour, how it normally happens and what patterns there are. 4. I’ve done it again. Acknowledging and admitting to their feelings and failings, in order to move forward with positive change 5.

Plans This session considers how a more in control student may look, making

This intervention programme centres around body image, negative perceptions and media influences. The media more than at any other time holds a power and influence on how young people see themselves and present themselves. The programme considers; how they see themselves, how they are affected by how they look, who influences them, the negative and positive media messages and how they can regain their strength and self worth. FACILITATOR NOTES The intervention can be a challenging one for children and for parents because when we look at the evidence we have all been affected by it to some degree or another. So I would say look at the parent booklet and consider all the points it raises, plus do some research before you begin the programme which will make the whole course more relevant. WHY THIS INTERVENTION? Does your child exhibit any of the following behaviours? (Some may not be connected to the issues within the family or they may be, children often use different coping methods when faced with difficulties) I think every child would benefit from this intervention especially the following; Reported issues with diet Significant purposeful weight loss Repeated flouting of the school’s uniform code Obsessed about their body image LENGTH OF THE INTERVENTION 6 weeks plus one follow up session BASIC OVERVIEW OF THE INTERVENTIONS Labels - What do they think of themselves, what do others think and how that all makes them feel. Feelings - How self aware are they? Have they been bullied, teased or ridiculed; how do their feelings affect their behaviour? Influences - Who and what influences how they feel and act and how does this affect their lives and choices. Negative Media -Media influences and how they can impact and influence the individual and society in general. Positive Media -Taking a fresh look at the media and how some are trying to normalise images and go against the current trend. Stronger - Getting children to view themselves in a more positive light, looking at positive influences and how confidence manifests itself. Progress - A review of what progress has been made and how they look at themselves and portrayed images.

This intervention programme is aimed at tackling poor attendance in schools. The sessions enable short bursts of relevant discussion around lates and absences and the effect on their schooling and life’s chances. Each week considers another aspect and allows discussion and education in order to alter their view point and improve their education. The aim is to improve each student’s attendance. REFERRAL CRITERIA These are the criteria that I used, your school might need a different range. Attendance below 85% Persistently late for school Persistently late for lessons LENGTH OF INTERVENTION It may be six or twelve weeks depending upon the student’s progress. These sessions are shorter than normal sessions and cover half a lesson or a form time because these children have already missed too much of their education.
