When people struggle with executive function\, it impacts them at home\, in school\, and in life because the skills involved support goal setting\, planning\, and completing tasks.Ā \nExecutive function is responsible for many skills including: paying attention; organizing\, planning\, and prioritising; starting tasks and staying focused on them to completion; understanding different points of view; regulating emotions and self-monitoring. Executive functioning skills usually develop quickly in early childhood and into the teen years but are still developing into the mid-20s. Some people struggle with EF\, and this can cause challenges during childhood\, as a teenager and young adult.Ā \nWe will hear from an EF expert about what executive function skills are and how they impact our lives. We will also hear directly from school staff about adjustments and proactive work that has made a positive impact in their settings.Ā \n\nLearning Outcomes: \n\nAttending this half day seminar will help delegates increase their knowledge and understanding of the importance of supporting executive functioning for all pupils\, but particularly for those who have weaker EF function. Delegates will hear about a range of practical strategies\, to adopt\, adapt or use and will leave with the understanding and confidence to build on current practice.Ā \n\n*If you would like to become a memberĀ and access discounted rates for IELA CPD and events\,Ā please click here. \nBook now URL:https://www.boarding.org.uk/event/understanding-executive-functioning-skills/ LOCATION:Virtual ā€“ Zoom\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Online,Seminar END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
