RESILIENCE UNDERSTANDING NURTURE
Our Aim
Providing bespoke approaches to address the social and emotional challenges that are present in child development, group dynamics and school life.
Our Approach
We incorporate a person centred, solution focused approach when working with schools and hold in mind that each school and individual will have their own unique needs.
We promote restorative approaches and value systemic thinking.
We place a strong emphasis on working in partnership with schools and providing opportunities for processing and reflection.
Schools can be confident that a focus on well-being and mental health not only enables them to provide healthy and happy school environments for pupils and staff and prepare the citizens of tomorrow with sound character and values, but also directly supports their more immediate mission: the promotion of effective learning.
"RUN have worked with our school offering play therapy, staff supervision and parental support.
All aspects of RUN's work have enhanced the school.
Staff have made excellent use of staff supervision and it means that they have a space to bring things that they need to talk through, whether they be from work or from life outside of school - you can't pour from an empty jug!
Play therapy has been a further compliment to our pastoral work - allowing children to explore their significant experiences in a safe and age appropriate way.
Finally, I have really valued the provision of support for our parents and carers. Through RUN, we know that we can offer families initial help as quickly as possible when needed. Not only does this benefit them and their children in a very immediate sense but it also helps develop their trust in us; that we can help.
Together with RUN, the school is able to scaffold the family when needed."
Hackney New Primary School: Head Teacher
You've got brains in your head and feet in your shoes
You can steer yourself any direction you choose.
You're on your own. And you know what you know
And YOU are the person who'll decide where to go.
Congratulations! Today is your day.
You're off to Great Places! You're off and away
You'll get mixed up, of course, as you already know.
You'll get mixed up with many strange birds as you go.
So be sure when you step. Step with care and great tact
and remember that Life's a Great Balancing Act.
Just never forget to be dexterous and deft.
And never mix up your right foot with your left.
And will you succeed? Yes! You will, indeed!
(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)
KID, YOU'LL MOVE MOUNTAINS!
So...
be your name Buxbaum or Bixby or Bray
or Mordecai Ali Van Allen O'Shea,
You're off the Great Places!
Today is your day!
Your mountain is waiting.
So...get on your way!
