De-escalation and positive handling training for schools, SEND and alternative provision

Children and young people can be distressed, angry or at risk, and your staff are the ones who respond. Our courses give school, SEND and alternative provision teams practical, lawful skills to prevent conflict, respond safely and protect pupils and colleagues.
