Sherwood Training Reviews

Course contents aren't always the most interesting however the trainers made it as fun as humanly possible she was brilliant

Great to have a refresher course to remind us of what techniques we can use should we need them.

Great and informative good demonstration

Very good demonstrations with breakaways

the course overall was good and its content was well structured, i think the trainer was engaging and made the day course interesting as well being able to answer questions for us. i feel that the material is enough to educate us but i do still feel that some breakaways are not included or do not offer appropriate safety, such as the rear naked choke.

Really good peer discussions talking about experiences with pupils.

I liked the interactive parts and discussions. I struggle with just lots of PowerPoint slides

The trainer is well versed in in the exercises and the sequence. Was explaining eloquently. Very supportive when helping too

I thought the training was thought provoking. As a mental health nurse working in an acute paediatric setting, challenging negative beliefs is something I often have to do. This training certainly helps in doing that. I do think a tailored version for paediatrics is necessary, their was a few things that were only applicable to Adult nursing.

The morning session involved lots of discussion around learners and the school's ethos. However, I personally benefit from recapping the key elements of the original training. It felt more of a relaxed discussion as opposed to a learning a session. The afternoon session was great. Recapping all of the physical breakaways was really beneficial and helped me remember them should I need to use any in the near future. Overall, it was a great day day, thank you!
