Sibling Workshops

NME Trainers are certified to deliver training to school staff around the core principles of Dr Bruce Perry's neurosequential framework, including how the brain develops, organises and functions; how stress and trauma impacts on the brain, and therefore learning and behaviour; and classroom strategies/interventions in line with the 3 R's - regulate, relate, reason. More information can be found through Sussex Psychology.
