Who is this course for?
This e-learning is aimed at Community Sponsorship group’s Education Leads working with schools.
Aims of this course:
The Healing Classrooms programme aims to support schools and educators to develop inclusive and nurturing learning spaces where refugee and asylum-seeking students can gain the necessary academic, social and emotional skills to develop their full potential.
The IRC’s Healing Classrooms approach—built on 40 years of education in emergencies experience and a decade of research and field testing—offers children a safe and predictable place to learn and cope with the consequences of conflict and displacement.
All of the IRC’s training series are based on the Healing Classrooms principles and provide practical guidance and resources on how to apply them to the everyday school context.
This e-learning contains content developed by International Rescue Committee who help people affected by humanitarian crises to survive, recover and rebuild their lives. The IRC have developed a programme called the Healing Classrooms Programme.
By the end of this course you will have:
gain insight into the objectives, structure, and key principles of the Healing Classrooms Programme by the International Rescue Committee (IRC) and how it supports the emotional and educational needs of children affected by conflict and crisis.
Be equipped with practical resources and strategies to support refugee children in schools, including approaches for addressing trauma, promoting emotional well-being, and fostering an inclusive learning environment.
“By standing with us, you show that you are here for humanity”.
