A framework for emotional and social development
Noun: Latin Fāgus (“beech”) – The Tree of Learning
Fagus was principally developed for pupils at Beech Lodge School, many of the children there have attachment and developmental trauma-related difficulties and have been adopted from care. Fagus has a wider application and can be used with many school-aged children. It enables an educational setting to reflect on children and young people's behaviour, understand their social and emotional developmental strengths and weaknesses and put a robust assessment, planning and tracking process in place.
