Pre-conference Seminars: Motivational Interviewing in Education

This session will explore how motivational interviewing can be used within school settings, by educational psychologists, teachers and other professionals. Specifically it will cover:

• How MI fits with relational approaches

• How emotional literacy support assistants (ELSAs) can use MI to support the wellbeing of children and young people

• How the development of thinking around macro-MI (systemic thinking) fits with school based practice

This session will be idea for professions with some basic training in, or knowledge of MI. It will not cover basic concepts, so may not be suitable for beginners.

Attendees are welcome to sign up to the MINT UK conference which starts on the Thursday afternoon and finishes Friday afternoon (see link below). This will focus specifically on MI practice and development across multidisciplinary contexts.
