Understanding the Impact of Attachment & Relationships on Behaviour and Learning

One aspect of Attachment theory is the importance of the early relationships developed between the child and their care givers.  Children initially gain an understanding of themselves, relationships and their perception of the world from their relationship experiences with their care givers.  These early attachment experiences can have a considerable impact on children and young people’s behaviour and learning.  It is essential for all practitioners involved in Education, Social Care and Health to have a clear understanding of attachment theory. 

This course will provide you with an introductory theoretical base whilst exploring different effective strategies and interventions to support children and young people with issues around attachment.
