摘要

学校在教育孩子关于失去和改变以及支持丧亲经历方面的作用得到了强调，然而，学校工作人员报告说，当有人去世时，他们对能够支持孩子的信心很低。本文报告了对苏格兰八所学校提供的丧亲培训的评估，该培训旨在帮助学校社区发展参与和支持丧亲儿童的知识和信心。采用前后问卷对282名参加培训的学校教职工的信心、信念和价值观进行测评。培训后举行了两个焦点小组，为期6-18个月，以了解长期影响。调查结果表明，参与者将丧亲支持视为其职责的一部分，短期和有针对性的丧亲培训方案有助于提高学校工作人员的认识和信心，以应对丧亲儿童的需求。

Addressing the bereavement needs of children in school: An evaluation of bereavement training for school communities

The role of schools in both educating children about loss and change and supporting bereavement experiences is emphasised, yet, school staff report low confidence in being able to support children when someone dies. This article reports on an evaluation of bereavement training that was offered to eight schools in Scotland and aimed to assist school communities to develop knowledge and confidence in engaging and supporting bereaved children. Pre and post questionnaires were used to measure the confidence, beliefs and values of 282 school staff that attended the training. Two focus groups were held for 6–18 months following the training to gain an understanding of the longer-term impact. Findings suggest that participants viewed bereavement support as part of their role and that a short and targeted bereavement-training programme can contribute to raising the awareness and confidence of school staff to respond to the needs of bereaved children.
