This presentation explores the power of co-regulation practices in schools (for Elementary and Secondary).

The content is divided into five sections:

​​

1. Understanding co-regulation

2. Understanding what lies beneath the behaviour

3. The adult as the regulation anchor

4. Co-regulation in practice

5. ​From co-regulation to eventual self-regulation

​​

Participants will explore how the nervous system detects safety through relational cues, how stress states temporarily reduce access to reasoning and executive functioning, and why adult regulation is the starting point for all effective intervention. The presentation highlights practical, evidence-informed strategies for classroom environments and day-to-day interactions that build emotional safety and resilience.
