Designed for school staff navigating the daily challenges of pupil behaviour, this CPD-accredited online course offers clear, structured guidance on how to respond calmly and safely in situations where positive handling may be required. Delivered entirely online with flexible access, this course is ideal for teachers, teaching assistants, SEN support staff, and senior leadership teams who want to develop a confident, legally informed approach to managing conflict and preventing escalation.
Rather than overcomplicating things, this course focuses on what matters: understanding appropriate intervention, the legal framework, and how to protect both pupils and staff in high-pressure scenarios. With a straight-talking tone and accessible format, you’ll gain the confidence to make well-judged decisions under pressure—without needing to wade through unnecessary fluff. No travel, no awkward role play, just relevant knowledge you can absorb at your own pace—then apply with confidence in your school setting.
