Pastoral Care and Remote Learning

About this webinar:

It will encourage reflection on the lessons that can be learnt, about the support that young people need to make sense of their learning and to ensure their wellbeing. It will consider the impact that reduced interaction during learning activities, can have on young people and how schools can respond. It will examine how all members of staff, in a school, can respond to the different needs of individual learners during challenging circumstances.
