Executive Functioning

BRAND NEW TRAINING!

Executive functioning (EF) isa set of cognitive skills that help people regulate their thoughts and actions to achieve goals:

  • Planning: Creating plans and determining how to complete tasks

  • Organization: Keeping things in order

  • Attention: Focusing on what's important

  • Working memory: Holding information in mind, such as rules or goals

  • Cognitive flexibility: Shifting attention in response to different cues

  • Impulse control: Resisting initial reactions

  • Emotional regulation: Controlling emotions

  • Decision-making: Making choices

This will be an interactive session where we explain how our brains process information differently and discuss ideas on how to support individuals with learning differences.

Loren Snow is a regular trainer we use here at NSPCWT, he is always hugely popular and gives real life experiences and stratergies to help support families.

This is a free training event for parent carers of children with additional needs and/or disabilities within North Somerset. This event is also open to professionals who work with children/young people with additional needs and/or disabilities in North Somerset. Priority on place allocation will be given based on the criteria above.
