I Matter Framework Training

An Introduction to the I Matter Framework - 

A webinar and/or workshop  

How can we respond to make a difference to children's wellbeing?  

This introduction to the I Matter Framework is intended to help you take a fresh look at some everyday challenges.   You will learn what the I Matter Framework is, why it is needed and how it can help professionals and parents and young people.

One of the key premises of our work is that though there is a lot of discussion around about transforming services, there are still some massively overlooked issues that need to be taken into account if we are serious about improving outcomes for children and families. 

Therefore I Matter Framework Courses are all about making some time to think - as YOU have a really key role to play;

PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMME:

On completion of this webinar or workshop you can consider applying for further training  

i) either as part of our regular rolling programme or 

ii) on an I Matter one day Intensive.  

Perhaps you might register with a group of colleagues from your locality who want to study together

PARENT-CARER PROGRAMME:

Our parent-carer programmes are currently run only in partnership with member schools and services.   If your child's school is not involved, why not speak to them about attending an introductory webinar or workshop themselves?  

The training course offered is the same as that offered for professionals simply with a different focus.

What people say about an I Matter Approach

If this approach was used, interventions would be better matched to need and more effective. It removes the current thinking that the "child" is the problem that needs "fixing" and works with the system around the child which in my view is far more helpful and effective.   Headteacher and Parent

This course has changed the way I think about my home and work roles.   I now enjoy both of them far more and feel more effective. Relationships have improved and deepened and I now feel more hopeful we can make a difference.   GP and Parent
