We continue to receive training requests from Primary and Secondary schools around the country, bringing the new 2012 Department of Education guidance to school staff in a way which is relevant to their work, their environment and the challenges that they face in dealing with pupil behaviour.

Dynamis provides a specific education-focussed one-day (or half-day) training in the issues involved in use-of-force in a school setting, which reflects government guidance on this area, clarifies the rules involved for teachers, and offers management teams a position of knowledge from which to make good decisions about managing violence and aggressive incidents and their aftermath.
