Somerset Wellbeing Framework - Bereavement and Loss Training

All settings are likely to be affected at some time by sad events involving bereavement and loss. These could include the serious illness, injury or death of a child, parent or member of staff. It could also include moving home, the death of a pet or parental separatikon. Schools are well placed to support children who have experienced these events of bereavement and loss.

The aims of the training will be to:

• Raise awareness of the extent of loss and bereavement in children’s lives.

• Consider the process of grieving.

• Understand the developmental nature of children’s responses to death.

• Increase confidence in supporting children who are bereaved.

• Provide strategies to support children in schools.
