AI summary of reviews

Consistently knowledgeable, patient and engaging trainers are the provider’s clearest strength, making complex theory accessible through humour, real-life examples, discussion and hands-on practice. Attendees value the safe, supportive atmosphere, clear explanations, thoughtful adaptations and opportunities to ask questions and repeat techniques until confident. Courses are generally well structured and paced, with useful breaks, and learning transfers directly to workplace practice and everyday situations; a few attendees find some sessions longer or more repetitive than necessary.

An excellently delivered course, with a student-centred approach, underpinned by relevant psychological theory. The theory was easy for all to understand but staff were challenged to apply this to our school and students. Rachael was an outstanding deliverer; she was engaging, passionate and informative, with clear knowledge and understanding of the topics and skills required. Rachael engaged all on the course through various interactive activities and met the needs of the staff. Rachael has given me confidence to deliver restraints but also how to de-escalate students safely and calmly. All content was relevant for our school and Rachael’s relevant experience allowed staff to relate to her stories and examples. Everyone should do this course - whether you’re from a mainstream, private or SEN/SEMH school, a parent, a social worker or a youth worker. It really allows you to understand young people with trauma and behavioural difficulties and also the law involving restraints and physical contact with young people.

Jon was extremely knowledgeable with a great personality to draw others in. Great stories to theory of practice. Great personality. I go university and the sherwood training had helped with my studies - legislations, theories. Thank you

Really good knowledge behind behaviours- good emphasis on strategies that are least restrictive to be tried first. Course was not rushed, plenty of time to discuss and share ideas, Kirsty had a lot of anecdotal evidence that helped understanding

Rachael was very friendly, very open about issues and how to over come them. The support she provided us during the training was very helpful in terms of day to day work that involves pupils that may have challenging behaviours. Thank you Rachael😊

Excellent delivery and teaching, friendly approach. Kirsty made sure that all the right areas were covered and embedded and recapped when she identified that some might have been uncertain or on the wrong track. Kirsty gave some great examples to help understanding. Best training course I've ever had, links in to everything we are trying to achieve for our school culture.

Superb course - Content and delivery the best I have experienced when learning positive behaviour strategies to use to support me in my job role. The sessions are all Informative and relevant but also accessible for all and very interactive. Highly recommend this to anybody supporting young people to manage their emotional and mental well being.
