Overview

Our engaging Level Two course (12 hr) in positive behaviour management is available for organisations supporting children, young people and vulnerable adults with documented special needs or challenging behaviours, and who may pose a risk to themselves or others in medium-risk Education and Health and Social Care settings.

We believe that all behaviour is communication being driven by experiences and emotions. We deliver a toolkit approach that is 95% understanding behaviours and encouraging de-escalation. The 5% assesses the need for physical intervention in conjunction with a need’s analysis.

  • Delivered by expert trainers with current experience in Education and Health and Social Care
  • This group course is tailored to the needs of your organisation and can be delivered via blended learning or face to face at your setting
  • Our training emphasises positive relationships as being the key element in behaviour support, with physical techniques serving as only one part of an overall approach. As such, it is entirely compatible with Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) approaches.

This course is designed for individuals operating in a medium-risk environment and is ideal for those working in:

  • Pupil Referral Units
  • Special schools
  • Adult learning
