This CPD session has been written for those schools looking to embed the Zones of Regulation across their school.
It is a one hour CPD session with supporting teacher guide that outlines a practical approach to making zones work in a school setting.
The teacher guide also provides some useful templates that can be used to support students to ‘take 5’ out of the lesson to self regulate and to guide the process of a ‘take 20’ for an emotional wellbeing chat with a teacher.
Zones has been launched successfully across my school off the back of this CPD session.
