About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

Who is this for: Social Workers, Carers, Designated Teachers (for Trafford looked after, previously looked after and children in need)

These sessions are designed to support pupils who are persistently absent from their educational settings; we look at why this may be happening and discuss what can be done to address the issue. The sessions are delivered by Trafford's Virtual School Wellbeing Lead and Assistant Educational Psychologist. The intention is to focus on the importance of a collaborative approach between school practitioners, social workers and carers and the impact that this approach can have.
