GDPR and ELSA local contacts

The ELSA Network holds contact details of EPs delivering ELSA by request. They are visible to the public in the area directory because you have requested to be contacts for ELSA in your own localities. I also hold an email contact list which replicates this information. You may request at any time that your details be removed from the website and my email list. Unless you make such a request, I will assume that you still wish to receive ELSA Network emails and be visible on the website area directory. The list is never given to third parties.

ELSA Conference 2018 – ‘Building Resilience’

This conference will support staff in developing their understanding of resilience theory and offer practical advice and strategies which can be used to support both the children and young people ELSAs work with and the ELSAs themselves.

One day conference for trained ELSAs

Presented by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Educational Psychology

Dr Tina Rae – Key Note Speaker

Dr Tina Rae has over 30 years experience working with children, adults and families in both clinical and educational contexts within local authorities and specialist educational services. Tina specialises in social, emotional and behavioural disorders and difficulties.

Psychologists have long recognised that some children develop well despite growing up in high risk environments. This capacity to cope with adversity and even be strengthened by it, is at the heart of resilience. It is not something that people either have or don’t have – resilience is learnable and teachable and as we learn we increase the range of strategies available to us when things get difficult.

This key note will draw on insights from social care, CBT approaches and Positive Psychology, to develop an understanding of how resilience can be applied in work with children and young people.
