Description
The +ProActive Approaches Train The Trainer Course (Children’s SEMH Services Edition – SEMH residential settings) enables one of your own staff to qualify as an ‘In House’ trainer and mentor colleagues to identify, understand and respond confidently to behaviour that might challenge using a wide range of proactive strategies and techniques and includes the following:
- Behaviour that might challenge in the context of child development
- The significant impact of childhood trauma & attachment
- Functions of behaviour
- The legal context
- Effective and practical de-escalation techniques including help scripts
- Incorporates PACE (Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity & Empathy)
- Therapeutic post-crisis support (including understanding sympathy, empathy, shame & guilt) and…
- Effective incident recording using a 7-part recording formula.
The philosophy behind +ProActive Approaches is one of understanding, empathy and adopting a pro-active mindset in relation to potential challenging behaviour. Through empowering staff members to become inquisitive about behaviour and consider it from a context of either being an unmet need, frustration, anxiety, trauma & attachment issues, environmental factor or communication difficulties, they will be able to correctly understand the behaviours and subsequently develop the correct support plans that will limit the likelihood of behaviour in the first place. This approach will ensure that your service effectively focuses on supporting young people rather than trying to manage them.
The +ProActive Approaches courses draw heavily on contemporary research, PBS (Positive Behaviour Support) principles and direct practice experience. All courses will allow you to confidently meet Ofsted minimum standards.
You can access a training package that provides practical solutions to serious issues and regularly achieves significant increases in not only course participant’s knowledge, but more importantly, their SKILLS & CONFIDENCE.
This is achieved through a blend of the following:
- Experiential Learning
- Video Case Studies
- Group Exercises
- Pairs Exercises
- Group Discussions
The 8 Day +ProActive Approaches Train The Trainer Course (Children’s SEMH Services Edition – SEMH residential settings) has been specifically developed for residential staff in SEMH settings who are supporting children and young people with behavioural difficulties (SEMH/SEBD).
