When the adults change, everything changes !

---

In an era where educational landscapes are continually evolving, the principles laid out in Paul Dix's seminal work, "When the Adults Change, Everything Changes," have never been more relevant. It is with great anticipation that we announce a comprehensive event where the esteemed Hannah Hall will delve into the core tenets of this transformative book. 

At the heart of Dix's philosophy is the conviction that the behaviour of adults in educational settings sets the tone for the entire school culture. This event, led by Hannah Hall, will offer an immersive introduction to relational practice and explore the foundational question of 'why' we must adjust our approach as educators and adults in the learning environment.

Consistency, Equity, and Adult Behaviours: Hall will guide participants through the critical importance of consistency in adult behaviour, illustrating how this steadiness forms the backbone of a secure and predictable learning environment. She will address the necessity of equity, ensuring that every student, regardless of background or ability, has access to the same high-quality educational experiences. A deep dive into adult behaviours and their impact on student engagement and success will challenge attendees to reflect on their practices and strive for improvement.

Neuroscience and Regulation: Understanding the brain is key to understanding behaviour. This segment will shed light on how neuroscience underpins learning and regulation, offering insights into how educators can better support students' emotional and cognitive development.

What to Do: This practical portion of the event will focus on positive noticing, fostering a sense of belonging and emotional currency among students, and the significance of recognition, rewards, rituals, and routines in creating a supportive school culture.

What to Say:Communication is crucial. Hall will explore effective de-escalation techniques, the power of scripted interventions, the healing potential of restorative approaches, and the clarity brought by diagnostic solution-focused planning.

The event will culminate in an opportunity for reflection, policy, practice, and planning, allowing attendees to contemplate how they can implement these strategies within their own contexts.

This is not just a professional development opportunity but a chance to be part of a movement towards a more compassionate, effective, and inclusive educational system. Join Hannah Hall for a day of exploration, inspiration, and transformation that promises to leave a lasting impact on your approach to education.
