In the episode we speak to Dr Duncan Gillard, an Educational Psychologist who is using evidence informed approaches to promote the well-being of children and young people in his work.
We discussed DNA-V (the Acceptance and Commitment model for youth) and how this has been adapted to universal, targeted and more specialist levels for use in schools. We discuss how important it is for interventions in school to be evidence based and evidence informed and how this has been proven for the Connect Curriculum and other DNA-V based projects.
