ARC

Woodlands is  part of The Attachment Research Community (ARC), a charitable organisation set up in 2017 by virtual school heads, school leaders, psychologists, training organisations and academics, with a mission for ‘every school to be attachment and trauma aware by 2025’.

Relational Approach to Education -ARC)

ARC’s purpose is to support all schools and education settings to be attachment and trauma aware in their practice for the benefit of all members of the learning community and particularly the most vulnerable, by bringing together, sharing and celebrating best practice. In 2024, we achieved the ARC Gold Award, and in 2025 we became the second school in Telford and Wrekin to become an ARC Learning Hub! We will host 3 webinar/conference events to support other schools and share our story and the impact it has had on our children and community.
