Title: Working on Worries (WoW): Fully Funded Training for Primary School Support Staff to Deliver Parent-led CBT for Child Anxiety Problems

Summary: Following 5 successful rounds of training, the Working on Worries project has trained 124 pastoral workers and support staff to deliver Parent-Led CBT for Child Anxiety Problems for primary aged children within their schools. We are running further training in Parent-Led CBT, taking place in March. This will consist of two consecutive days of in-person training on the 10th and 11th of June, supplemented by a day of online training on the 18th that enables schools to offer the intervention in an online format. As this is a fully funded programme, there is no cost to schools who wish to participate with the exception of releasing staff to be trained and the cost of additional intervention books if schools decide to provide copies for families to keep.

Please use the following link to see our Information Leaflet and find out more about Working on Worries. If you are interested in taking part, please complete our Expression of Interest Form to sign up to an orientation session, in which the project and your potential involvement will be discussed in more detail.

It has been wonderful to see the passion of school staff who are engaging with the programme to develop new skills with which to support their students' mental health. We have continued to receive positive feedback from school staff about the training. Looking at the feedback we received, it is clear that our newly trained pastoral workers and support staff saw the value of the programme.

"Thoroughly enjoyable course. We will see less children with attendance discretions, less children using wellbeing services and happier children."

"I love this and feel it will be a very useful and effective tool to support families and children."

"Great training. Enjoyed it and feel ready to get started."

EAL Assessment Framework for Schools (Free tool)

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
These practical resources enhance EAL provision in schools and include our award-winning EAL Assessment Framework for Schools with digital EAL Assessment Tracker.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The Framework is a cross-curricular tool which helps practitioners to observe, document and accelerate the ways bilingual pupils start to use English as a tool for learning in school, then continue to develop their use of English through all their subject areas.

It describes the development of communicative behaviour in class and language for learning through listening, speaking, reading and writing. It also includes some aspects of personal development likely to be significant for bilingual learners, such as readiness to speak to others in the classroom.

It is important to note that the framework is not a tool to be used to assess other languages the pupil may speak. NASSEA supports the continuing use and development of pupils' other languages, and reference is made to using skills in these languages, but this tool is only for assessing English as an Additional Language.

The Framework has been developed to help practitioners to become more aware of the progress of their EAL learners through formative assessment.

The NASSEA EAL Assessment Framework has been made to support practitioners and their pupils. This highly popular and effective tool is easy to use for mainstream teachers and specialist EAL staff alike.

Even if you have no previous EAL experience, our Framework will help you track pupil progress, set appropriate targets and accelerate learning.

You can purchase the framework from our online shop.
