Emotional Wellbeing

An Introductory Handbook for ELSAs and Pastoral Support Staff

About this book

This is an essential resource for educators working to support emotional wellbeing in children and young people. Written by the team behind the Emotional Literacy Support Assistant (ELSA) training programme, it provides practical suggestions that can be implemented straight away to make a positive difference in the life of the young person.

Fully updated, the third edition of this bestselling guide includes a new chapter on trauma and adverse childhood experiences, as well as expanded material to support neurodivergent children, help those who struggle with worry, and work more closely with parents and carers. The chapters give a clear overview of each topic underpinned by the latest research in educational psychology, descriptions of vulnerabilities as well as case studies, 'let's get practical' ideas, and reflective moments. Topics include:

  • Self-esteem
  • Friendship skills
  • Social skills
  • Therapeutic stories
  • Understanding anger and anxiety
  • Dealing with loss and bereavement.

With fresh colour illustrations throughout, this resource will be vital reading for ELSA trainees as well as anyone wanting to provide the best possible support for the emotional wellbeing of the young people they work with. It is designed for use with individuals, groups or whole classes.
