EDED11401 Building Learning Partnerships

Course details

An essential component of the core business of learning managers is to create supportive learning environments in which all students can maximise their learning. To do this effectively requires knowledge and understanding of the social and emotional needs of students. The development of partnerships between schools, parents and community support agencies enhances the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people by developing a capacity for resilience, which prepares them to meet current and future challenges. This course aims to provide learning managers with background knowledge and skills that will encourage them to feel comfortable and confident about promoting the mental health of children and young people. It aims to develop positive attitudes to mental health promotion, which acknowledge the importance of 'connectedness' between the student, family, school and community. The course will develop an awareness of possible partnerships with a range of professionals including social workers, psychologists and counsellors and encourage the sharing of transdisciplinary knowledge.
