Adverse Childhood Experiences During Covid-19
Looking at the Impact of ACEs During Covid-19
One year on from the start of the UK lockdown, former teachers and DSLs Sarah Gensmantel and Nigel Lowson look at the impact the pandemic has had on our young people. In this webinar, they discuss Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), whether the covid-19 pandemic should be included in their definition and how students may have experienced ACEs linked to the pandemic. They look at some practical approaches for how children and young people can be best supported to resume normal life or the 'new normal' over the coming months and years.
