In last year’s My Health, My School Survey, less than 40% of children in East Sussex Schools reported that they had received enough information and learning about how to cope with a bereavement, loss or separation in their PSHE lessons…

We are really pleased to be able to offer a session with Natalie Miller (MHEW) and Jennifer Shevlin (ESCC- Educational Psychologist with specialisms in Bereavement and Loss and Critical Incident Response).
During this session we will be looking at what we mean by bereavement and loss and how we can approach this as a whole school.

The session will cover:

• Defining and Exploring what loss is
• Defining and Exploring what bereavement is
• Developmental stages
• The loss cycle
• The importance of talking about death and loss
• The needs of the bereaved
• Curriculum considerations
