The TORA is an evidence-based framework that supports child mental health and wellbeing. Initially developed for early years and school settings, the TORA provides teachers, educators and other professionals working with children with the opportunity to learn discrete relational skills that promote positive social, emotional and behavioral change and ultimately improve learning environments and overall engagement in education.
Educators attending the TORA training will leave with a deeper understanding of essential frameworks around childhood development, brain science and the importance of relationships. Educators will also leave the training with eight relationship-based skills to add to their toolkit that have been adapted from the world of play therapy to be used by educators in the early years environment.
