Programme for the day
Minding the Gap CPD training goes 'Back to Basics'! A series of 8 full day training sessions, one for each of the EYFS Areas of Learning and one for the Characteristics of Effective Teaching and Learning.
We will be starting with – Personal, Social and Emotional Development
Session 1 - Self Confidence and self-awareness
‘I am me’ – A close look at the developing child and key points of development. We take a look at theory and research, deepen understanding in current thinking, explore your ‘pedagogy’ and identify how play can support development.
Session 2 – Making Relationships
‘ I can connect’ – Building on what we know about the importance of attachment and the importance of positive relationships. We look at supporting a child to develop a ‘sense of self’ and encouraging children to learn from others and the ‘teachable moment’.
Session 3 – Managing Feelings and Behaviour
‘ I know me’ - An emphasis on self-regulation and emotional well-being. We consider how to understand and support behaviour and be responsive to the children's needs, feelings and moods. We focus on how stories can support emotional development and how to provide the ‘cultural capital’ children need to become happy, safe and secure learners.
Light refreshments are provided on arrival and break time.
Please note that lunch is NOT included
