Join us for a FREE discussion exploring ‘Person Centred Learning – Listening and Working with Learners and Their Families’ in secondary/FE settings.

The discussion will be hosted by Whole School SEND’s National Delivery Coordinator, Caroline Sutton-Reid, and everyone will be encouraged to join in, ask questions and share experiences. As such, content will be responsive but may cover some or all of the following themes:

  • The importance of person-centred approaches for learners with SEND.  
  • How person-centred approaches can be used in schools and colleges to give learners a voice and support them in achieving their aspirations for the future.  

The discussion builds on our 20 minute online SEND CPD units. While everyone is welcome to take part in the session, delegates who have completed the corresponding unit content in preparation are likely to find the sessions particularly helpful.

Due to the interactive nature of these sessions, recordings will not be made available after the event.

Dr Holly Beavon, Educational Psychologist

From an early age, I was interested in the ‘why,’ ‘why do certain people behave in the way that they do?.’ This interest evolved further when I discovered that there were several interpretations from a single event from a range of people. However, in certain groups and contexts certain voices/perspectives were marginalised, discredited and at times not even considered. Based on this experience I was eager to think around how we can provide platforms to hear from the perspectives of those that can often be marginalised such as children and young people. I recognise the importance of hearing children and young people’s lived experiences and what is important to them. A further interest I have is the use of language and how this shapes individuals’ identities and their understanding of themselves.

Based on these interests, and my learning of psychology at University, I was eager to apply psychology in practice. I completed the Doctor of Educational Psychology in 2020 – 2023. I then went on to work as an Educational Psychologist in 2023 at Nottinghamshire Educational Psychology Service. I continue to learn, and each day is different, but I love that I have been able to build my interests into my work, and this is what makes each day enjoyable and interesting!
