- Why do we train the whole school? Any staff member could become involved in an incident. A teacher held a child to keep them safe. An investigation followed. Their actions were confirmed as reasonable, proportionate, and in the child’s best interests. 3 key questions were asked about training (pic)
- Another lovely testimonial: The Team Teach training was excellent and gave us real strategies for descalation. We were encouraged to think about our pupils and reflect on how we could support them. Staff found the training beneficial and put strategies in place the very next day. 👍

- Thank you for the testimonial: "Amy's advice has been so valuable. Her expert knowledge has helped us to support pupils at risk of exclusion. She has really helped us to make positive changes for pupils and staff. Amy does not just give you advice but helps with resources and practising language. "
