BITESIZE CPD | what to do when you're worried about a pupil
Channel: Pooky Knightsmith Mental Health
Date: 27/09/2019

This video is designed to be used as part of a staff /team meeting as a form of mini CPD.  It contains pause points so you can break for discussion and pick up and run with the ideas and think how to make them work for you.  

This video has been developed with young people from Cape Cornwall School in conjunction with HeadStart Kernow.  This is what they thought you needed to know about how to support young people when they're struggling.
