Feedback from Staff

“The knowledge has heightened my intuition, awareness and understanding of young people, their needs and moods, and their moods in relation to my own. I’m seeing the overall importance of relationships”.

“I am much more aware of how students and others around me are behaving towards each other and how quickly alienation or escalation or intimidation can happen through lack of sensitivity and emotional intelligence”.

“The course has enabled me to understand myself much better. I know more about children, teenagers in particular, their brains, emotions, relationships…knowing this means I am much more able to help them in a practical way so they can find their own way out of difficulties and lead a more independent life”.

“I am using instinct more to inform my judgement. I am more sensitive to the needs of the child, balancing what is right for the student with what is right for the teacher”.

“I was fascinated to see how the early years of child development shape the growing character reflected in later years, and the opportunity we have as teachers to make positive changes to some of this during the teenage period because of the huge changes going on in the child’s brain and body”.

“This is a really interesting and informative course which tracks the development of the child from the early years up to looking at how teenagers behave and how their minds work”.

“With pastoral problems like relationship difficulties amongst students, I can now let them do the work – listen, steer them a little whilst they talk it over with me, suggest solutions, discuss it. When I tried this out with a group recently, I noticed that I was left feeling much more authoritative, more empowered, more self-confident and more confident that they could resolve it amongst themselves with a little help.”
