On a cold and raining October INSET day, there was a lot of warmth and laughter at Ysgol Bryngwyn School!

Today, school support staff from Ysgol Bryngywn and Ysgol Glan-y-Mor have been taking part in ‘From Conflict to Connection’ delivered by the brilliant Andi Woods from Advance Aloud and funded through Unison Cymru WULF.

We’ve explored understanding behaviour/s, de-escalation, neurodiversity and inclusive communication – with plenty of discussion, shared experiences and practical strategies along the way.

Another great day supporting the professional learning of school support staff in Wales!

We’re keen to work with more schools across Wales to provide funded learning opportunities for support staff.
