The Virtual School value the time they spend with carers, and to enable this to be an even more successful partnership between school and home, would like to have more sessions available for meeting you during the course of the year. Each session will have a focus, but as ever, if there are topics we haven’t identified that you would find more helpful, please let Catherine Charlton know, by emailing: catherine.charlton@southglos.gov.uk

These 50 minute coaching sessions with coaches will assist council staff in coming up with strategies and action plans to maintain and build their wellbeing and resilience. Unlike counselling which provides a safe space to explore worries and concerns, these confidential coaching sessions will help staff come up with individual plans to help them build their resilience, understand what they can do to enhance their wellbeing and overcome current and future obstacles. There are activities and exercises that wellbeing coaches can also give people to work through in their own time if they would find it useful.

Please note these sessions will be delivered by skype or telephone.  Your coach will contact you to confirm the best method for you.

WE WILL BE CONFIRMING NEARER TO THE TIME OF TRAINING IF IT WILL BE SAFE TO DELIVER FACE TO FACE OR TO REMAIN A ZOOM WEBINAR.

IF YOU ARE A SOUTH GLOUCESTERSHIRE EMPLOYEE PLEASE CAN CONTACT IT FOR A ZOOM LICENSE.
