Description

In this practical workshop session we will explore ways of including anxious children in mainstream schools and settings. The session will be values based and practical and will aim to allow the sharing of experiences and good practice as well as promoting innovative approaches to inclusion through the design of best practice.

Family perspectives and experiences will also be explored. This is not a ‘medical model’ day on anxiety.
