Certified Training in Special Educational Needs and Disabilities
Maybo training provides staff with the skills and awareness required to de-escalate and manage behaviours of concern, with the aim of creating positive and safer learning environments where children can actively learn and explore.
Proven experience and expertise
Maybo believes behaviour management training should be based on values that promote respect and choices for the individual.
Our learning methods are consistent with the principles of positive behaviour support - focusing on primary and secondary strategies for preventing and defusing behaviours that represent a risk to safety. This helps you:
- Better understand a child’s physiological and emotional needs that may act as a learning barrier
- Make improvements to the learning environment
- Engage children in ways that reduce behaviours of concern
Alongside proactive strategies to meet needs through a human rights approach, our de-escalation strategies help colleagues to safely manage challenging situations that arise, with the aim of reducing the need for restrictive practices.
Maybo was one of the first organisations to evidence compliance with the Restraint Reduction Network (RRN) Training Standards and we can offer training Certified by BILD ACT to Services that meet requirements. Our Trainer Training is also Accredited by City & Guilds.
Our approved curriculum for services supporting children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities consists of ten modules ranging from positive behaviour support, to primary, secondary and tertiary responses to behaviours of concern.
SEND School Case Study
Maybo recently worked with a SEND school that supports secondary-aged children and young people with moderate to complex needs. Our training was introduced to further enhance staff skills with positive strategies for reducing and responding to behaviours of concern.
