Next week many children will return to school which will be another big change for them (and parents) to navigate.
To help support your child manage change, FutureLearn have created a new online Psychological First Aid (PFA) training course for parents.
“Those who complete the training will be equipped to better identify when their child is in distress and provide support to help them feel safe, connected and able to take steps to help themselves.” – Public Health England
Upon completion, you can expect to have a greater understanding of PFA and how to provide support. It’s free, takes about three hours to complete (split into three sessions) and no previous qualifications are required.
