Supporting Service Children During Periods of Separation
Periods of separation are a common part of life for many Service children. Education professionals can play an important role in providing stability, understanding and support during these times.

The Naval Families Federation's new Navigating Periods of Separation resource includes dedicated guidance for education professionals, helping schools better understand the experiences of Service children and respond with confidence.
The guidance offers practical ways to help children feel supported, maintain a sense of belonging and navigate the challenges that separation can bring.
We encourage schools and practitioners working with Service children to explore the resource and consider how it can strengthen support within their own setting.
