Positive Handling in Schools

Positive Handling in Schools

Overview

Teachers and school staff are often subject to aggressive behaviour that, when not properly managed, can disrupt the classroom learning process and lead to a negative working environment. The Positive Handling in Schools course explores key positive handling strategies that will help to diffuse a challenging situation and correct the behaviour of the pupil or pupils concerned.

You will familiarise with essential legislation regarding positive handling in schools and will be introduced to the SCARF model used by teachers to de-escalate disruptive behaviour. 

Our expert instructor will also take you through practical case studies and exercises, helping you to deepen your understanding of the aggression curve and the process, including when is the right time to stage a physical intervention, and how to do so.
