THE WHOLE CHILD

 

 

This is what they say.....

'The training was excellent. A clear, structured programme, interesting and easy to implement. Some children have made obvious progress, particularly children who find difficulty in concentrating for sustained periods.'

BrainChild Programme Review – Staff of St. Frances CE Junior School , Co. Durham.

'Viv is inspirational & energetic. She builds people's confidence to have a go. Based soundly on theory but practical, easy to follow and immediately transferable to the classroom.'

Jinty Williamson, Headteacher, Fair Oak Junior School, Hampshire

Later she added……..
"BrainChild switches the children on."!"

The BrainChild Programme© for Schools

....works on the underlying problem to help to improve brain function. It is available for use with whole classes and groups, in schools and other settings. The Research and development of the programme initiated at Manchester University and further developed with Cumbria Children’s Fund demonstrated significant positive changes in reflex integration, attainment and behaviour. Courses for individuals can be found in WORKSHOPS FOR TEACHERS & THERAPISTS.

Each module of The BrainChild Programme for Schools is delivered in a day course of 6 hours, providing a presentation and physical activities.

The Introduction to The BrainChild Programme© for Schools is designed for whole school delivery and training for all staff is recommended. Delivery to Children's Centres and groups other than schools is tailored to the needs of the client group. An Early Years version of the programme is available.

Training together

The most effective way of achieving programme delivery in the setting is for the whole staff and volunteers of an organisation to train together. It can be more difficult for individuals to achieve the optimum conditions in isolation. The activities create an atmosphere for bonding and interaction that is an important part of the programme. This works to strengthen the group dynamics. Adults find the activities lots of fun.

The courses are not suitable for cascading to others because there is such a large percentage of new information and accuracy of physical activities to learn. The course does not qualify delegates to teach others to deliver. This requires considerably more training. 
Training for teachers and teaching assistants also enables them to develop a deeper understanding of the needs of their pupils and to have fun in the process........
