Improving Staff Well being
Improving staff wellbeing in schools
Togetherness cascade training enables experienced practitioners to deliver foundation training to others. It’s a proven, effective way to embed the approach across teams, services, or entire organisations—building a shared understanding and consistent practice in emotional health and wellbeing.
Improving staff wellbeing
Supporting school staff to raise emotional health across a whole community
Togetherness is about relationships because social interactions are at the heart of human experience. For school staff, relationships and everyday interactions with children literally grow and shape their brains and their emotional development and wellbeing.
Togetherness trained staff internalise a way of thinking and develop techniques to help them model helpful behaviours, to tune into emotional needs and empathise in order to get the best from children. We know that if staff are beleaguered, stressed, disengaged or overwhelmed they are unable to effectively tune into children’s needs and that’s why our model is about all relationships – for staff and children.
Foundation training for school staff
Togetherness delivers evidence-based training for all staff:
- Understanding brain development
- Reading behaviours
- Communicating feelings
- Parallel process – understanding emotional health and the importance of ‘containment’ for clear thinking
- Recognising personal signs of stress and emotional needs
Reflective Supervision
Togetherness helps school leaders to build the model into staff coaching and daily supervisory support to ensure all staff are resourced to care for their own wellbeing and to support the emotional health of children and families in school.
Advanced CPD online training
Advanced training delivered through our online learning portal provides expert knowledge in the areas of understanding trauma, attachment and brain development. These courses can be followed at any time online.
