Description
The Teacher's Introduction to Attachment offers a clear and practical guide to understanding children with attachment issues and how they can be supported. Nicola Marshall draws on her expertise as a trainer and adoptive parent to explain attachment in simple terms, how children develop attachment problems, and how these problems affect their social, emotional, and neurological development.
Marshall addresses the challenges of identifying attachment issues in children, particularly those who are in care or adopted, and how these issues can be mistaken for symptoms of other conditions. She also provides helpful principles and practical strategies for supporting children, from individual tips for improving communication to changes a school can make to reduce a child's anxiety about transitions.
This book is an essential resource for teachers and support staff, providing a valuable addition to any school's staff library. With its practical and accessible approach, it offers a valuable tool for anyone working with children who may be experiencing attachment issues.
