The Teachers Introduction to Attachment Book

The Teacher’s Introduction to Attachment offers an easy way to understand children with attachment issues and how they can be supported.

• Describes what attachment is, how children develop attachment problems and how these problems affect a child’s social, emotional and neurological development.
• Addresses some of the difficulties in identifying attachment issues in children – common among children who are in care or adopted, but which are sometimes mistaken for symptoms of ADHD or Autism Spectrum Disorder.
• Also describes a range of helpful principles and practical strategies which will help children flourish – from simple tips for the individual on how to improve their communication to the changes a school can make to reduce a child’s anxiety about changes and transitions.

Ideal for teachers and support staff to pick up and use, this book is an essential addition to any school’s staff library.
