CPD sessions can be informative and enlightening
CPD sessions from Dynamis can be so useful to staff in thinking about the different situations they have to deal with in their classrooms that it can be a turning point in their school year. Here is some feedback from two teachers who recently attended one of our blended online/in-person Positive Handling training sessions.
“The training was concise, coherent and well delivered. The overall theme was one of a serious nature, but open enough to allow us to ask questions specifically related to our profession. Our instructor provided us with a vast amount of information which was enlightening and extremely useful. It has been one of the most informative and interesting CPD sessions I’ve attended in a very long time. I hope that the school I work for choose to run the session again in the future to refresh our understanding and knowledge of the situations, techniques and the law regarding the handling of the situations discussed.”

“The skills training was very insightful and practical. Even more so , the knowledge we gained that teachers are not powerless in difficult situations was empowering and I believe all staff working in schools should go through at least the theory aspect if not the full training. Thanks”
