Welcome to the Walsall Virtual Schools Attachment Aware & Trauma-Informed Schools Project (AASP) which is part of Walsall’s Building Resilient & Inclusive Communities & Schools (B.R.I.C.S) Project.

Walsall council devised the B.R.I.C.S project to support schools across Walsall to become more attachment and trauma-informed in their practice, to included more nurture,  use restorative approaches within schools focusing on positive relationships and support the inclusion of children and young people with SEMH needs. The focus was on behaviour as a communication and how emotional well-being impacts on children and young people’s learning

The aim of our project is to develop and embed attachment and trauma aware practice across the schools in Walsall 

The AASP is a two-year project where schools work towards achieving a bronze (12 months), silver (18 months) and Gold (24 months) certificate of achievement.

Schools can further develop their practice and work towards achieving the Platinum award 6 months are completing the gold award.
