Event Timetable 10:00 - 10:15 Welcome & Introductions Educational Psychologists for Material Change Setting the context and aims for the day. 10:15 - 11:00 Workshop 1| Dr Dan O'Hare What does the welfare system take from children? 11:15 - 12:00 Workshop 2 | Dr Luca Onions Trans, non-binary and gender-diverse autistic children's experiences of school. 12:00 - 12:45 Workshop 3 | No More Exclusions Abolitionist approaches to school exclusions 12:45 - 1:15 Lunch Break 1:15 - 2:00 Norkshop 4 | Revoke Unaccompanied minors and abolitionist care in the asylum system. 2:00 - 2:45 Workshop 5 | Justin Hancock Politics, micropolitics, and becoming in relationships. 3:00 - 3:45 Workshop 6 | Maslaha From Prevent to Palestine: silencing in education. 3:45 - 4:00 Closing Remarks Educational Psychologists for Material Change Reflections, connections, and next steps. Workshop 1| Dr Dan O'Hare The UK's benefits system is often described as "lacking dignity and humanity", but behind that phrase are real children and families living with its consequences. In this talk, Dan weaves personal experience with research evidence to ask: what does the welfare system take from children? Beyond material deprivation and over and above the devastating effects of poverty, how do bureaucracy, conditionality, sanctions and stigma shape family life and mental health? Together, we'll reflect on why this matters for policy, practice, the kind of society we want to build, and what we as professionals might do. Workshop 2 | Dr Luca Onions Luca is an educational psychologist, he is talking about his research exploring the lived, school experience of gender-diverse, autistic young people under the age of 15. Workshop 3 | No More Exclusions No More Exclusions is a Black-led, community-based abolitionist movement working to end school exclusion and challenge systems of state violence affecting Black, brown, disabled, and working-class communities. This session introduces abolition and its relevance to education, tracing NME's journey, lived experience, and organising. It explores the long-term impacts of exclusion and connects school practices to wider political and structural harm. Workshop 4 | Revoke Mona is the founder of Revoke, a radical, grassroots organisation working with young adults in the asylum system. Her own parents were political refugees from Iran and she grew up in Denmark before migrating to the UK as a teenager. Hannah is an integrative art psychotherapist with extensive youth work experience across schools, PRUs, statutory services and the NCS, and has been the Therapeutic Lead at Revoke for the past four years, where she built our community therapy programme up from scratch. Their session will focus on unaccompanied minors in particular and the holistic, abolitionist approach we've taken to their care. Workshop 5 | Justin Hancock Justin Hancock is a Sex and Relationships Educator. They are delivering a session titled "Politics, Micropolitics, and Lines of Flight in Relationships (a Potential Becoming...)". Workshop 6 | Masalaha Maslaha are delivering a session named 'From Prevent to Palestine: Silencing in Education'. Maslaha translates from Arabic as "for the common good". We believe the tools for liberation lie within our communities. We work in shared struggle with Muslim communities to live free from oppression in all its forms, and stand in solidarity with other liberatory movements.

Eek! My first podcast appearance 👀 I strongly believe that #edpsychs deserve to enjoy their work.

We spoke about ways to support EPs who may be feeling disillusioned, disconnected and/or isolated.

Really hoping this sprinkles a little positivity and hope for any EPs feeling glum out there 🚀 💖 ✨

We took a risk and it paid off… Couldn’t find a room for AME Coaching, so found a room at a ballet school

AME Coaches were amazing! Such kindness & compassion - naturals with the #motivationalinterviewing spirit

Training with Chiara was fab today 🥰

Celebratory glass of fizz for me🥂 #edpsychs
