Course Instructor

Stephen Trainer

My career has been in education since graduating in 1988. I taught in both mainstream and special schools throughout the 90s and early 00s, in between qualifying as an Educational psychologist and competing a further master’s degree in Education. I joined the Essex Educational Psychology Service in 2003. In my most recent role as a senior specialist EP, I have co-operated to develop a model of enhanced provisions in Essex. My passion is developing all our capability and understanding to improve outcomes for our children and young people using the psychological, educational and neuroscientific research. Out of this has come our Essex Approach to understanding behaviour and supporting emotional wellbeing called Trauma Perceptive Practice. I currently lead the Essex education directorate strategy for social, emotional and mental health.
