Our Training offer
Our work is split between direct work with children, young people and their families and indirect work, which includes training and consultation.
We aim to work closely with schools, parents, carers and other professionals so that we can work collaboratively to support children and young people aged 0–18.
This training prospectus has been designed to offer a range of different programmes to support professionals understand the mental health of the young people they are working with.
Training is free to Sunderland professionals unless otherwise stated

Stronger Schools
Stronger Schools provides teachers and school staff with pathways to recognise and respond to the well being needs of children in their school. Local educators, health and well being professionals, and support agencies have shared their expertise and local knowledge to adapt the pathways for South Tyneside and Sunderland schools. While the site is not available to share with families, it does contain resources to print and give to families.
ALL STAFF within Sunderland schools can have access to this website and each school should have received their own personal log in. If you have misplaced this or not received it, please email necsu.
