Blended Online & Practical Positive Handling Course

Designed to save valuable staff time, this blended course allows delegates to complete Part 1 of the training online, at a time suitable to them. It takes approximately 90 minutes and can be completed in as many sessions as necessary. This means your staff only have to assemble together for Part 2, the trainer led practical session. This is 2.5 hours long and can be delivered during or after the school day.

• The use of force
• The Heath & Safety at Work Act

• Avoiding and detecting positional asphyxia

Part 2 Course content:

All delegates successfully completing the course will receive a certificate. Refresher training should be completed annually.

We offer a discounted rate for groups of 20+ where the group is split into 2 and the practical session is delivered twice on the same day, one after the other.
