Managing Difficult Behaviours

  • “Although I did a training on [the subject] before, it was great to have this refresher in all its content. Many aspects of this subject I had forgotten, and so I have come away up-to-date and with new information on the subject. This training will help me in the care I am giving to the child as I have gained knowledge and now know how, if I am placed in ]a situation], the best way to deal with it and benefit the child as well”

  • “I am a social worker, however this training definitely supported me to help my carers understand the need to be sensitive to a child’s background and level of development, in managing their behaviour. Understanding the brain and its functions was helpful in putting into context a child’s behaviour.”

Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews

  • “It was very informative and the trainer was excellent. The actual subject matter was incredibly hard to hear and very upsetting, however, moving forward it's good to know that lessons have been learnt and it really does make foster carers and indeed kinship carers like myself, realise why the assessments and checks are absolutely vital in order to safeguard children.”

Digital Safety – Keeping Children Safe online

  • “This training made me realise the need to be aware about the benefits of various digital platforms for communication and development, risks and dangers resulting from wrongful use of them and the need to ensure that they are used for the right purposes. I can discuss my learning with my foster carers and support them to ensure that they are able to properly monitor the use of these digital platforms for the young people whom they care for.”

    — VK

  • “I found it useful to be given safe websites for children to use and websites we can use for safeguarding. The training helped me to become more aware of how to protect the children placed in my care when they are using the computer. I now know what things to look out for: managing risks - being aware of the risks of children online - and how to minimise and manage risks.”

Sudden and Unexpected Death of Infants

  • "It was good knowing how to lay the infant to sleep and to be careful not to leave the cot unsupervised. The most useful part for me was knowing how important it is to safeguard an infant from sudden death."
