Workshops for Teachers & Lecturers
Workshops can be booked individually or we can create a series of workshops and deliver them to your staff throughout the year.
​
Workshops can be tailored to suit availability; with 3-hour, half-day and full day options. Teacher-only days are ideal for PD and we can also run workshops outside of the typical school or university work day to accomodate the greatest number of staff.
​
Once we understand what areas you would like help with, we deliver workshops to suit. The workshops below are commonly chosen by schools and universities looking for professional development and training on how to better understand and work with students.
Popular Workshops
Brain Development
When communication is a challenge, understanding the way brains develop is the first port of call. We explain the HEADSS assessment tool and give guidance and advice on better ways to communicate with your students.
Trauma-Informed Care
So many of our young people have experienced trauma. Having tools to use when working with them can make teaching and supporting them much easier.
De-Escalation
More and more we are finding that teachers and lecturers need to know how to handle difficult behaviour. We help you learn new and better ways of managing these challenges.
Developmental Challenges
Neuro-diverse students with ADHD, ASD, FASD and the like, can have developmental challenges that make them hard to manage in a classroom situation. But there are some proven ways to work with them that will help them - and you.
Gender Identity & Rainbow Awareness
How gender is expressed and experienced has changed significantly in recent years. How you respond to these changes has a direct impact on your ability to support our rangatahi.
Social Media
Good, bad, or ugly, our young people are spending a huge amount of time on social media and it is impacting them in ways they don't even understand. We help you understand it better so you can support them as needed.
Difficult Conversations
Navigating sensitive topics such as consent, drugs, vaping, and mental health can be difficult for parents and kids alike. Explore how to face the challenge and have these conversations.
Self-Harm & Suicide
A growing problem amongst our youth, we help you learn how to spot the signs that something is wrong and give practical tools on how to help any students feeling this way, or dealing with a friend feeling this way.
