Poor sleep health is common during adolescence due to biological changes and environmental and societal demands that impact on sleep. Insufficient and poor quality sleep in adolescence is associated with an increased risk of mental health problems, poor physical health, school absenteeism and cognitive impairments such as reduced concentration and memory.

Delivered by experts in the field of Behavioural Sleep Medicine, this course has been specifically designed for individuals working closely with adolescents (e.g., teachers, educational psychologists, school support staff, youth workers). The aim is to provide attendees with a solid, theoretical understanding of the foundations of adolescent sleep, the knowledge to identify when a young person may be experiencing persistent poor sleep, and the practical skills to help encourage them to sleep well.
