Duration – 1 or 2 Days
These courses introduce additional restraint and breakaway techniques as a supplement to those taught on the foundation course.

Who is this training suitable for?

School staff supporting students who present behaviours of concern ranging from to moderate higher levels of severity/intensity. We can assist organisations in benchmarking their current levels by using a tool which measures episodic severity.

Course Outcomes

  • Staff be able to use and teach a range of restrictive physical interventions designed to safely support students expressing behaviours of concern at higher levels of intensity.
  • Staff will have an acute understanding of the value base underpinning the application of these techniques including children’s rights and the principle of social validity.
  • Staff will be aware of the place of these techniques within the broader context of an individualised behaviour support plan specifically designed to reduce their use.

  • Safer maintenance of placements for students with more complex needs
  • Fewer notifications to end placements

  • Long term sustainable reductions in RPI
  • Greater consumer and parental confidence in your school
