Throughout August we are offering our 'Working with school children' book bundle for £25 (usually £30). Be prepared for the new school year, or top up on your learning throughout the summer. Get your copy of the most popular titles in our Parenting Matters series.
These books address key areas around trust, behavioural issues and trauma, and how these can affect children’s behaviour and learning in education. This bundle has been carefully curated for those working with schools to establish better outcomes for children and young people in care. Despite this, the titles in this bundle are applicable within and outside of education settings.
Parenting Matters: Parenting a child with difficulties in learning caused by trauma
Children who are looked after or adopted may experience varieties of learning difficulties that are caused by the trauma and disruptive relationships that marked their early lives. These difficulties may exist not just in education, but also in social skills, in children’s ability to relate and attach to others, and to absorb new information. For parents and carers of these children who are seeking to help them manage or overcome these difficulties, it is imperative that the past informs the present – to relate this early trauma to the child’s difficulties now, and to use this knowledge to inform healing and development for the child.
Parenting Matters: Parenting a child who has experienced trauma
Many children become looked after because they have experienced very difficult and painful experiences in their young lives that have a lasting impact on their lives. This guide explores traumatic experiences and their effects on children at different stages of development. It provides expert knowledge coupled with facts, figures and guidance presented in a straightforward and accessible style. An adoptive parent of twin boys describe what it is like to parent children who have experienced significant trauma and how this impacts their life as a family.
Parenting Matters: Parenting a child with emotional and behavioural difficulties
Due to their early experiences of loss and lack of care, many adopted and looked after children experience emotional and behavioural difficulties. If you are looking to adopt a child, this guide will give you practical and realistic information on what these difficulties may be. It also covers their symptoms, prognosis and treatment.
