Training

Noah’s Ark Trust has put together a variety of intervention options for Schools in the 2 counties that aim to benefit Children, Teachers and Teaching Assistants on understanding bereavement and breaking down this taboo subject matter.

Children express their grief in a variety of ways. Different feelings may emerge at different times and the intense sadness and crying associated with grief may be intermittent, interspersed with times of play and hilarity. This can mean that people around bereaved children sometimes don’t recognise that they are grieving, or think that they are behaving inappropriately. Bereaved children have been described as "forgotten mourners".

Families and professionals may be unsure and uneasy about supporting bereaved children, who may pick up on their embarrassment and anxiety, feeling isolated and confused.

Noah’s Ark Trust is working in partnership with Charles Matthews, Principal Educational Psychologist of Children’s Services in Worcestershire and his team. Working in partnership to develop and deliver best practise bereavement services for the children in our community.
