In this session we will work to:
•consider attachment theory in relation to learning contexts•review the Attachment Aware Schools project•identify the key processes of Emotion Coaching as a strategy for supporting children’s attachment relationships and learning•highlight the significance of relational models of behaviour management
Pattern of attachment
•(Relationship)
Pattern of processing information
•(Transformations of information)
A strategy for identifying and responding
to danger
•(Mental and behavioral strategies)

Attachment is…
Strange Situation: infancy
Preschool Assessment of Attachment (PAA): 2-5 y
School-Age Assessment of Attachment (SAA): 6-13 y
Transition to Adulthood Att. Interview (TAAI): 16-25 y
Adult Attachment Interview: adulthood
Parents Interview
Attachment Assessments
Memory systems involved in attachment, learning and behaviour:
•Procedural Memory (Knowing how)
•Imaged Memory (Knowing where)
•Semantic Memory (Knowing that)
•Connotative Language (Knowing in what way)
•Episodic Memory (Knowing what happened)
•Integrative reflection (Understanding)
Dynamic Maturational Model
What we can do?Lead practice so that:
•Nurturing relationships promote children’s learning and behaviour particularly for vulnerable or high-risk children and helps to satisfy children’s innate need to have a ‘sense of belonging’•Support practitioners to be secondary attachment figures who can help to reshape the insecure IWM of the child to a more secure IWM •Be child-centred and acknowledge one size does not fit all – in the same way we create additional infrastructures for children with physical impairments, we need to do the same for children with emotional and behavioural impairments
Meeting a spectrum of needs to improve learning outcomes and behaviour

Attachment Relationships – How we can Lead Practice in Schools
• “Attachment influences students’ school success. This is true of students’ attachment to their parents, as well as to their teachers. Secure attachment is associated with higher grades and standardized test scores compared to insecure attachment. Secure attachment is also associated with greater emotional regulation, social competence, and willingness to take on challenges, and with lower levels of ADHD and delinquency, each of which in turn is associated with higher achievement” (Bergin and Bergin, 2009)
• “Emotional well-being must be a larger part of any learning, and by association, the educational agenda…. Schools may be the optimum sites for buffering the impact of stress, building resilience and enhancing individual capacities for learning” (Nagel, 2009)
• ‘Teaching is a social, interpersonal, attachment-based endeavour’ (Conzolino, 2013).
Interestingly:
•Dr Geoff Taggart at Reading University has highlighted how leadership styles can be affected by attachment styles•For example, leaders who have avoidant attachment styles often depend on achievement for their self-esteem which invariably leads to stress-related ‘burn out’•Research into leadership and attachment styles found that ‘secure-base’ leadership did not lead to burn out, with leaders maintaining a healthy balance of stress and other hormones in their system(Kohlrieser 2012). 9
Attachment and Leadership
1. What are the links between attachment and educational attainment?
2. What does your school do to help pupils:– promote emotional resilience?– enhance individual capacities for learning?– develop nurturing relationships?– manage transitions?
3. Are schools currently fulfilling their public duty to support the needs of all children?

Research aim:
‘To support the development of resilience and community well-being by
integrating emotion coaching into everyday practice in work with children
and young people’.
EMOTION COACHING
• Part 1
Why do we need it?• Part 2
What is it?• Part 3
How do we do it?
PART 1
Why we need emotion coaching.
The anatomy and Physiology of Emotions
What Informs Emotion Coaching?
•Neuroscientific evidence
•Emotions & Vagal Tone
•Attachment Theory & Empathy
(Siegel, 2012)
Our brains
The Connectome - neuronal network linking up the areas of brain
Denser network = quicker, faster, more reliable connections because ‘the sum of the parts is better than the parts
alone’
Plasticity – the ability to adopt and adapt to stimulus
Neuronal networks are continuously shaped by genetic, environmental and experiential stimulus and
strengthened through repetition. Brain plasticity reduces as we age
Mirror Neurones - encode information about the external world and goal-directed
behaviour
They enable humans to emulate others and thereby empathise & understand intent– essential for the
socialization of children
Emotional Responses
Distress Fear Surprise Anger Disgust Joy
Innate, Hardwired and Universal
The Double Act
Networks between amygdala and frontal lobes (OMPFC, anterior cingulate, insula) involved with fear conditioning, emotional regulation and attachment schema
More connections between amygdala and frontal lobes than any other part of brain
“The vagal system allows us to maintain continued social engagement by modulating and fine-tuning sympathetic arousal during emotional interpersonal exchanges” (Cozolino, 2006: 61).
The Vagus Nerve: Runs from the brain throughout the body and acts on all organs.
Vagal Tone
Good Vagal Tone
• Highly responsive:• Respond quicker,
process information faster, concentrate better
• More appropriate and effective responses to stimuli
• Return faster to a normal‘resting state’
Poor Vagal Tone
• Low responsiveness:• Responds and
process information not as quickly, less able to concentrate.
• Less appropriate and effective responses to stimuli
• Difficulty returning to normal ‘resting state
How does Emotion Coaching work with the brain and body?
1. Provides a stimulus for triggering the vagus nerve
2. Triggers an empathic mirror system
3. Helps child to feel safe and calm down
4. Provides a narrative for connecting emotional and cognitive processes
5. Stimulates neural connections between amygdala/limbic system and frontal lobes (especially OMPFC and corpus callosum)
6. Creates a process of co-regulation and ‘repair’ (helping implicit memories become explicit)
Helps child to learn to self-sooth
Helps child to learn to self-regulate
Helps child to learn to resolve problems
Helps child to learn they can survive adversity (or thwarted wishes/desires/needs)
Helps child to learn about empathy and pro-social behaviour
PART 2What is emotion coaching?
• Based on research by John Gottman (1997) in America.
• Research suggests it is a key to happy, resilient, and well-adjusted children and young people.
Emotion coaching is helping children and young people to understand the
different emotions they experience, why they occur, and how to handle them.

Emotion Coaching
5 Steps of emotion coaching
1. Be aware of child’s responses2. Recognize emotional times as
opportunities for intimacy and teaching
3. Listen empathetically and validate child’s feelings
4. Help child to verbally label emotions – helps sooth the nervous system and recovery rate
5. Set limits while helping child to problem-solve
What This Means in Practice:
STEP 1:
Recognising, empathising, validating the feelings and labeling them
STEP 2 (if needed):
Setting limits on behaviour
STEP 3:
Problem-solving with the child/young person
Emotion Coaching Involves:
• Teaching children/young people about the world of emotion ‘in the moment’
• Giving children strategies to deal with ups and downs
• Accepting negative emotions as normal
• Using moments of negative behaviour to as opportunities for teaching
• Building trusting and respectful relationships with children/young people
Emotion coaching is a set of processes that include:
talking to the child about the emotionshelping the child to verbally label the
emotions being feltrespecting and accepting the child’s
emotionsdiscussing the situations that elicited the
emotions having goals and strategies for coping with
these situations (Gottman, 1997).
Lessons LearnedTo empathizeTo read others’ emotions and
social cuesTo control impulses
(self-sooth and self-regulate)To delay gratificationTo motivate themselvesTo cope with life’s ups and
downs (be resilient)
• To pay attention!
When it Goes WrongChildren who are not emotion coached:•Lack the ability to self-sooth•Are less able to control their emotions•Find alternative outlets for
dealing with their emotions•Are less sensitive to social cues•Have more trouble with school work•Have more trouble getting along
with other children•Have more behaviour problems with
teachers•Have more stress-related hormones•Have more illnesses (Gottman, 1997 & Goleman, 1995).
How Schools can Help
• “Schools are becoming emotional buffering zones for the growing number of children hurt by divorce, poverty, and neglect” (Goleman, 1995).
• Neurological resilience to self-sooth is fostered by the emotional climate in the classroom.
Emotion coaching recognises Emotion coaching recognises thatthat
EQ matters more than IQ.EQ matters more than IQ.
Feelings Matter
Clip to View:Are you disrespecting me?
Whilst watching:Identify the feelings going on underneath the behaviour ina) The pupilb) The teacher
The importance of a meta-emotion philosophy (Gottman, 1997)
Emotion Coaching Style
“Much of today’s popular advice ignores the world of emotions. Instead, it relies on child-rearing theories that address the children’s behaviour, but disregard the feelings that underlie that behaviour” (Gottman, 1997).
Building a Power Base“Proposing solutions before empathising is like
trying to build the frame of a house before you lay a firm foundation” (Gottman).
•Emotional first aid is needed first.•In this way, emotion coaching builds a power base that is an emotional bond.•This creates a safe haven, a place of trust, a place of respect, a place of acceptance, a sense of self etc.•This in turn leads to children and young people giving back respect, acceptance of boundaries etc.
What Emotion Coaching is NOT
• A quick fix
• A panacea
• A substitute for
specific interventions
• A therapy
It is also not disapproving or dismissing any emotions.
Disapproving style • Disapproves of negative emotions – viewed as
a sign of weakness, lack of control, unconstructive• Lacks empathy, noticeably critical and intolerant• Tries to get rid of negative emotions via discipline,
reprimand, punishment• Focuses on the behaviour rather than the
emotions generating the behaviour• More likely to view negative emotional displays as
a form of manipulation, lack of obedience, sign of bad character
• Often motivated by need to control and regain power and/or to ‘toughen up’ child
Dismissing Style
• Despite good intentions (wants to make child feel better) but is uncomfortable with negative emotions• Views negative emotions as toxic and so must be ‘got over quickly’• Considers paying attention to such emotions will make them worse,
prolong them • Tries to stop negative emotions by reducing/ minimising/ making
light of their importance/significance e.g. it’s no big deal, don’t worry about it, be a big girl, that’s life, you’ll be fine• Often motivated by need to rescue and make things better, fix
the problem e.g. have a biscuit, I’ll buy a new one, you need to do this
• Focuses on getting rid of the emotion with logic or distraction rather than understanding the feelings
What we think about disapproving and dismissing signifies to child…
“It works so it must be good!” BUT the actual message is…
•What you are feeling is not right, your assessment of the problem is wrong, you must not feel this way
•Child does not learn to trust own feelings affecting decision-making
•Not given opportunities to experience emotions and deal with them effectively so grow up unprepared for life’s challenges
•Not given opportunities to self-regulate or problem-solve
•Can lead to suppression of natural emotions, less or lack of self-regulation, reliance on distraction to get rid of emotion
•Generates more negative feelings - resentment, guilt, shame, anger

Emotion Coaching Messages• We all have feelings and need to recognize them in
ourselves as well as others
• We are not alone and we are accepted, supported, valid, cared about, understood, trustworthy and respected – this is then returned
• We are empowered and it’s safe to engage in problem-solving
• All feelings are normal but need to be regulated and expressed constructively
• Problems and conflicts can be resolved peacefully!
Part 3How do we do Emotion Coaching?
• Having emotional awareness of own emotions
(Meta-Emotion Philosophy)
“Put on your oxygen mask first before putting it on the child”
• Recognising the power and purpose of emotions• Empathising• Active listening/Rapport building• Scaffolding /Problem solving together• Role-modelling
Emotion Coaching
STEP 1:Recognising, empathising, validating the feelings and labeling them
STEP 2 (if needed):
Setting limits on behaviour
STEP 3:
Problem-solving with the child/young person
The Three Steps
Instead of denying the feeling …
Empathise, validate, label…
Step 1- Empathise, Validate and Label• Recognise all emotions as being natural and normal and not always
a matter of choice• Recognise behaviour as communication (relational vs behavioural
model)• Look for physical and verbal signs of the emotion being felt• Take on the child’s perspective (mentalising/mind-mindedness)• Use words to reflect back child’s emotion and help child/young person
to label emotion• Affirm and empathise, allowing to calm down• Provide a narrative/translation for the emotional experience (creating
cognitive links)
Emotion Coaching Scripts
• ‘I can see that you get angry when that happens. I would feel angry if that happened to me. It’s normal to feel like that’
• ‘I can see you’re frowning and you’re kicking the wall and you’re expressing a lot of energy. I would be feeling like that too if I didn’t want to do something’
• ‘I noticed you looking around at the other who are working on their projects. I think you might be feeling nervous right now about whether your work will be ok. Have I got that right?’
Step 1: Examples
Step 2 : Setting Limits (if needed)
• State the boundary limits of acceptable behaviour• Make it clear certain behaviours cannot be
accepted• But retain the child’s self-dignity (crucial for
responsive behaviour and well-being)
Emotion Coaching ScriptsStep 2: Examples
• ‘These are the rules that we have to follow. Doing that is not ok’
• ‘We can’t behave like that even though you are feeling annoyed because it is not safe’
• ‘You didn’t put the ball away as we agreed. You’re probably angry that you can’t play with Billy now because you have to stop now’
Step 3: Problem Solving with the Child• When the child is calm and in a relaxed, rational state:• Explore the feelings that give rise to the
behavior/problem/incident • Scaffold alternative ideas and actions that could lead to
more appropriate and productive outcomes• Empower the child to believe s/he can overcome
difficulties and manage feelings/behaviour
Emotion Coaching ScriptsStep 3: Examples
• ‘This is not a safe place to be angry. Let’s go to a safe place and then we can talk’.
• ‘Next time you’re feeling like this, what could you do? How do you think you will react next time or if this happens again’.
• ‘You need to sit either by Ruth or sit by
your key adult in front of me – which
do you want to do?’
Emotion Coached Children
Achieve more academically in schoolAre more popularHave fewer behavioural
problems Have fewer infectious illnesses Are more emotionally
stableAre more resilient
CASE STUDYSecondary School Teacher
A Moment in time:
• Regularly came to school emotionally charged
• Argumentative/disruptive/ sabotage class
• Escalate to huge tantrums, scream, swear, slam doors, walk out, etc.
• My approach: punish and reprimand
‘Teacher’ Perspective
‘I felt the need to punish
negative behaviour because
my own experiences of school
taught me that that regains control and establishes authority’.
Research shows teachers perceive a need to be punitive in an attempt to stop problematic behaviour (Liljequist & Renk, 2007).
My Teacher Perspective
My initial concerns
• I felt it seemed weak, it seemed to put the child in control
• Was it condoning or encouraging the behaviour I wanted her to stop?
Gottman’s Coaching
• “Negative feelings dissipate when children can talk about their emotions, label them and feel understood”
• “Children need to understand that their feelings are not the problem, their behaviour is”
Happily ever after …• Once I adopted an emotion coaching approach
she started to slowly change her behaviour• She no longer has so many tantrums• She got on better with her peers and staff• She cooperated more in the classroom• She developed her own strategies for calming
herself down and was able to talk about how
she was feeling instead of resorting
to disruptive behaviour .
PERSPECTIVES OF IMPACT 23 generalised positive statements
Emotion coaching…• “is a useful tool• helps children to regulate, improve and take ownership of their behaviour
• helps children to calm down
• helps children to better understand their emotions
• makes practitioners more sensitive to children’s needs
• helps to create more consistent responses to children’s behaviour
• helps practitioners to feel more ‘in control’ during incidents
• provides practitioners with a ‘script’
• makes practitioners less dismissive of children’s feelings
• has become embedded into practice and will continue
• should be used by all practitioners”
Practitioners’ Quotes

Practitioners’ Quotes
Young People’s QuotesIt calms you down a lot really.If the teachers did that more often that would probably help us, because then we won’t go back in messing around. We’ll be, like all nice and calm. Because if teachers just send us out and just shouts at us we’ll just carry on messing around most of the time. If teachers just asks us how we’re feeling and what happened and everything, we’re going to go in to have the rest of the lesson nice and peaceful and quiet(Boy aged 13)
