This course is aimed at individuals who are supporting children, in nursery, primary, secondary or special school settings.
The aim of this course is to teach staff about how to support a child that has become distressed / dysregulated. Trainees will be taught a wide range of approaches, using verbal strategies initially, distraction techniques, and de-escalation of aggression skills.
For last resort situations when all other de-escalation techniques have been exhausted, trainees will be shown a range of low-level physical Interventions. All scenarios / situations covered will fall within the legislative remit of Section 93 of the Education and inspections Act (2006).
