Staff Training
As you know too well educating children isn’t just about the curriculum, members of staff have to deal with pupils who display a variety of behaviours, from anger management to self-esteem issues. We offer a programme of half day training sessions which will equip your staff with the tools needed to help your pupils remove any barrier that is stopping them taking part fully in their education.

“Responding to the REACH support flier was a great move!! Wendy and her team have started a range of programmes and bespoke packages to support the social and emotional development of our pupils and to help grow pupil leadership within school. It is still early days but the programmes have been well-received by the children and we are beginning to see a positive impact on behaviour and communication”
