Biography

Liz Bates is an independent education consultant. She supports both primary and secondary schools in all aspects of Emotional Health and Wellbeing, and Safeguarding, including whole school approaches, training staff and delivering talks to parents. Liz is a Protective Behaviours Trainer, a Wellbeing Award Advisor for Optimus and a regular contributor at national conferences.

"Aimed at upper primary and lower secondary aged children, Myg and Me enables positive conversations about anxiety. Split into six easy to follow sessions which work well one-to-one or in small groups, this beautifully illustrated resource offers activities that are explained clearly and simply without compromising on facts, giving useful suggestions to help children manage their own anxiety. I recommend Myg and me as a practical, engaging, and clear resource to anyone who wants to support children to develop an understanding of their emotions and how to manage them."
