Children express distress differently from adults, so this course begins with child development and psychological milestones. Learners explore how to build a trusting relationship with a child, key psychological theories and approaches, behavioural and emotional difficulties, working with families, ethics, and how psychological issues are assessed. It builds awareness for those supporting children in education, care or pastoral roles.
