Common Problems and Processes in Educational Settings (PSYC0233)

This module aims to equip training practitioners with the knowledge and competence to understand common problems and processes in education settings which have adverse effects on wellbeing (including, but not limited to bullying, examination stress, loss, family conflict, trauma and abuse) and the skills to develop and increase support from their community of teachers, peers and family members. Trainees will also learn to identify risk factors for common problems and obtain knowledge ofvulnerable groups of training practitioners such as those with special educational needs or looked after children. The module also aims to equip training practitioners to use psychological theories and psychoeducation to help children, young people, their families and staff to understand and tolerate negative emotions, support education staff with training, implementing peer mentoring approaches, and supporting classroom management in education settings. The training practitioners will learn to become aware of the limitations of their professional role within the context of the wider service and other agencies, and when to seek advice or signpost clients to other organisations such as CAMHS.
