Positive Behaviour Management

During her CPD sessions on behaviour, Sue uses a combination of training slides, practical demonstrations and activities to help staff examine, develop and improve their behaviour management skills.  As well as being thought provoking, this CPD is a great deal of fun, and Sue has a reputation for her practical, inspirational approach.  She makes a point of not just ‘talking the talk’, but also ‘walking the walk’.  There are various different sessions available as detailed below, and Sue can adapt these to suit the particular needs of your organisation.
