Emotion Coaching with Children and Young People in Schools by Louise Gilbert

Offering step-by-step guidance on embedding Emotion Coaching into schools: a novel approach to support children's behavioural regulation in educational and community settings. It provides young people with a broad range of skills to manage their emotions and develop resilience.

Research suggests that classroom learning, memory recall and social functioning are all affected by the process of emotionIf a child is not emotionally ready to learn then no amount of work differentiation or punitive threats will ameliorate this issue. In 'Emotion Coaching with Children and Young People in Schools', educational and community practitioners are offered a clear and structured guide to supporting learners with emergent social, emotional and mental health needs. Professionals are encouraged to regain control of their own emotional responses in the first instance, before engaging with distressed children 'in the moment' using the evidence based Emotion Coaching approach. Informed by Bowlby's Attachment Theory and located within a paradigm that includes nurturing schools, Theraplay, restorative practices and zones of regulation, Emotion Coaching offers a direct and powerful intervention that explicitly teaches children how to label emotions, to process emotions and to find solutions. If emotions are 'the glue and gunpowder' of human connectedness, then coaching children how to regulate their emotions should be prioritised in every school curriculum. This accessible and practical book is the ideal place to start. -- Dr David Colley, Oxford Brookes University
