39th Annual Conference of the International School Psychology Association

Message from the ISPA President We Stand Together: The ISPA Experience 2017 Dear ISPA conference participants, Welcome to Manchester for our 39th annual conference of the International School Psychology Association (ISPA) from July 19-22, 2017, focused on the conference theme Supporting Vulnerable Children and Young People in an Uncertain World. In the wake of the tragic event at the Manchester Arena on May 22, 2017, the theme of the conference appears to be particularly salient, including the special emphasis on topics such as supporting schools, families and children in times of crisis. The conference program features insights from scholars and practitioners from around the world to address the many challenges facing children and young people, parents, teachers and communities in the ever changing, complex, and challenging world in which we all live. Many leaders, professionals, individuals, and communities around the world have expressed their unity, in standing together with the citizens of Manchester and the many families and communities impacted by this tragic event. Your presence in Manchester and participation in the ISPA conference provides further support to the community and represents an international community that stands together, to promote unity, and contribute to the development of youth, around the world, who will continue to enjoy their love for life, freedom, and joy, together. Indeed, educational psychologists and education professionals throughout the Greater Manchester region and the UK have been instrumental in providing support for the many children and families impacted by this event. I hope you enjoy our special venue at the Manchester Metropolitan University, a great, modern campus in Manchester. A special thank you from me to the many members of the host organizations; Manchester Metropolitan University and the University of Manchester and supported by the Association of Educational Psychologists, the Division of Educational and Child Psychology of the British Psychological Society, the National Association of Principal Educational Psychologists and Place2Be. The local organizing committee has arranged many wonderful opportunities for participants to communicate and share experiences during the conference and to explore the local community and cultures. The scientific committee worked diligently to prepare a collection of informative sessions addressing many topics important to school psychology around the world. The conference proceedings include exciting keynote speakers and distinguished presenters from around the world, who will each share their expertise and insights with us. Topics addressed during the conference will include: • Working with children who experience mental health issues • Supporting schools, families and children in times of crisis • Developing strategies to support children with learning difficulties • Helping schools to become safe and effective learning environments • Promoting inclusivity in diverse communities • Training psychologists and other professionals to become effective practitioners. I also encourage all participants to attend the ISPA general assembly meetings, the interest group meetings, and committee meetings, as we welcome your further involvement in ISPA activities. I anticipate you will find discussions with participants at the social interaction groups, coffee breaks, lunch, and social activities enriching and informative. I hope you enjoy the 2017 ISPA conference in Manchester! Warm regards. Shane Jimerson, Ph.D. President of ISPA 39th Annual Conference of the International School Psychology Association

39th Annual Conference of the International School Psychology Association

Message from the Local Organising Committee On behalf of the Local Organising Committee, I am delighted to welcome you to the 39th Conference of the International School Psychology Association (ISPA). The conference is being jointly hosted by the city’s two most prestigious universities, Manchester Metropolitan University and the University of Manchester, both of which have an outstanding international reputation for their research and teaching in the field of school and educational psychology, special and inclusive education, social and emotional learning, diversity and educational disadvantage. Staff and students from both universities have been regular attendees at ISPA conferences over the years and so are already part of the ISPA family. The conference theme “Supporting Vulnerable Children in an Uncertain World” reflects the many challenges facing all of us in our ever changing and complex world. The current and all pervasive level of global uncertainty can make us all feel vulnerable but in particular, it affects children and young people’s education, mental health and well-being. There are also huge challenges for public services to respond effectively to the increasingly complex demands that they all face. These challenges have been highlighted by the consequences of the tragic terrorist attack that took place at the Manchester Arena on Monday 22nd May from which we are all still recovering. Such attacks leave us all feeling vulnerable, and the need to provide skilled psychological support to children, young people, families, schools and communities has never been greater. The scientific programme contains a range of contributions from researchers and practitioners from all over the world, each of which addresses the core theme of the conference. We hope that delegates will increase their knowledge and expertise by participating in the scientific sessions and the interaction groups and through meeting people socially over lunch, refreshment breaks and in the evenings. In addition to the welcome party on Thursday 19 July and the farewell dinner on the 22 July there are a number of social events to which you are invited. These include musical evenings and guided walks around the historic city of Manchester. Further details are provided elsewhere in the programme book. During your stay, we encourage you to take advantage of the many attractions that Manchester offers including its flourishing arts and food scene, and its vibrant cosmopolitan environment, which boasts a full range of free and exciting cultural attractions all of which are within easy reach of the conference venue. We trust that you will have an inspiring experience at the Manchester ISPA conference, that you acquire new knowledge and skills and benefit from meeting delegates from all over the world.

39th Annual Conference of the International School Psychology Association

Are the Kids Alright? The Role of Schools in Promoting Mental Health Professor Neil Humphrey Manchester University Institute of Education Professor Neil Humphrey is Director of the Manchester Institute of Education and Professor of the Psychology of Education at the University of Manchester. His research focuses on the role of schools in promoting children’s mental health. This includes examining how competencies and difficulties are understood and assessed, the identification of risk and protective factors (and how they relate to later outcomes), evaluation of school-based preventive interventions, and the study of factors and processes that influence the integration of ‘evidence-based’ interventions into practice settings (e.g. implementation science). His work has been funded by the National Institute for Health Research, Economic and Social Research Council, Education Endowment Foundation, Department for Education, and Big Lottery Fund among others. Neil is the author of Social and Emotional Learning: A Critical Appraisal (published in 2013 by Sage), in addition to over 130 journal articles, book chapters and other research outputs.

Scientific Programme The programme includes a wide variety of presentations, all of which are of central relevance to the theme of the conference. These will be led by academics and practitioners from over 40 countries, all of whom are experts in their particular field. The programme book contains information about the titles of each of the presentations, the names of the speakers, the time they will take place and the room number. Abstracts of each of the presentations are contained in the Book of Abstracts that has already been sent to all delegates and is also available to view on the Conference App. It is really important to read the abstracts before choosing the presentations you wish to attend The types of presentations are as follows:

Committee meetings The programme includes meetings of different ISPA committees. Sometimes these are incorporated into a symposium/roundtable. All delegates are welcome to attend these meetings.

ISPA General Assemblies

Symposia These comprise a number of presentations (typically 3 or 4) chaired by a convenor that focus on a specific theme, issue, or question. The convenor will ensure that each of the speakers keeps to time and he/she will also chair the discussion.

Workshops Workshops aim to increase participants’ knowledge and skills in a particular area of interest and include both didactic and practical/experiential components.

There are two ISPA General Assemblies – on Thursday 20th at 17.00 and Friday 21st July at 17.00. All delegates are welcome to attend and to take part in the discussions.

Audio visual equipment All presentation rooms are fitted with facilities for PowerPoint and video presentations. If you encounter any problems there is a direct dial telephone number straight to in-house IT support. This number is displayed in all rooms and can be dialled using the freephone in the room.

Roundtables The aim of these sessions is for one or two presenters to lead a structured discussion on a specific theme, issue, or question.

Papers These are typically research/case study/professional practice presentations. There are normally 4 papers per 90-minute session. Each speaker should talk for a maximum of 20 minutes. It is up to the first presenter to ensure that all speakers keep to this time limit. The final presenter should chair the 10-minute discussion at the end of the session.

Posters Posters may contain accounts of research projects, case studies or innovations in professional practice. Posters will be available for delegates to view between 9.00am and 12.00pm or 13.30pm and 16.30pm on each day of the conference. Poster boards will be located in and around the refreshment areas in the Brooks building. Coffee and tea breaks will be the best time to meet with delegates to discuss your poster presentation.

This is the Place

By Tony Walsh – Poet, Manchester, England Manchester! This is the place in the North West of England It’s ace, it’s the best and the songs that we sing From the stands, from our bands set the whole planet shaking Our inventions are legends! There’s nowt we can’t make and

And this is the place where we first played as kids And me Mam lived and died here, she loved it she did And this is the place where our folks came to work Where they struggled in puddles, they hurt in the dirt

So we make brilliant music. We make brilliant bands We make goals that make souls leap from seats in the stands And we make things from steel and we make things from cotton And we make people laugh, take the mick summat rotten

And they built us a city. They built us these towns And they coughed on the cobbles to the deafening sound Of the steaming machines and the screaming of slaves They were scheming for greatness, they dreamed to their graves

And we make you at home and we make you feel welcome And we make summat happen, we can’t seem to help it And if you’re looking for history then yes, we’ve a wealth But the Manchester way is to make it yourself

And they left us a spirit, they left us a vibe That Mancunian Way to survive and to thrive And to work and to build, to connect and create and Greater Manchester’s greatness is keeping it great

And And And And

And so this is the place now we’ve kids of our own Some are born here, some drawn here, but we all call it home And they’ve covered the cobbles, but they’ll never defeat All the dreamers and schemers who still teem through these streets

make make make make

us us us us

a record, a new number one a brew while you’re up, love. Go on! feel proud that you’re winning the league sing louder and make us believe it

that this is the place that has helped shape the world And that this the place where a Manchester girl Name of Emmeline Pankhurst from the streets of Moss Side Led a Suffragette City with sisterhood pride And this is the place with appliance of science We’re on it, atomic, we strut with defiance In the face of a challenge we always stand tall Mancunians in union delivered it all

Because this is a place that has been through some hard times Oppressions, recessions, depressions and dark times But we keep fighting back with Greater Manchester spirit Northern grit, northern wit in Greater Manchester’s lyrics And there’s hard times again in these streets of our city But we won’t take defeat and we don’t want your pity Because this a place where we stand strong together With a smile on our face, Mancunians Forever

Such as housing and libraries, and health, education And unions and co-ops, the first railway station So we’re sorry! Bear with us! We invented commuters! But we hope you forgive us – we invented computers!

Because this is the place in our hearts, in our homes Because this is the place that’s a part of our bones Because Manchester gives us such strength from the fact That this is the place. We should give something back.

And this is the place Henry Royce strolled with Rolls And we’ve rocked and we’ve rolled with our own Northern Soul And so this is the place to do business, then dance Where go-getters and goal setters know they’ve a chance

Always remember. Never forget. Forever Manchester. Choose Love.
