Schools can play a vital role in supporting the emotional health and wellbeing of children to build resilience, while colleges want to prepare young people for future working life by building self-confidence and the ability to deal with stress and anxiety. With growing demand and more complex situations to deal with, limited access to resources can mean meeting this challenge is difficult.
To help schools and colleges fill this gap in provision and support all children and young people, including those who are seen as more vulnerable, the Protective Behaviours Consortium CIC has responded to this important issue by developing a range of new support options in addition to the long-established training courses for professionals.
For over 40 years the Protective Behaviours Process has been used effectively to provide children and young people with the skills they need to feel safe and cope with life. As a Universal Curriculum for everyone, it is an approach that meets the needs of all children and young people, equipping them with tools for life.
To improve the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people the Protective Behaviours Consortium provides a comprehensive approach that equips staff with the day to day skills they need, as well as specific inclusive programmes to provide important learning opportunities and offer accredited qualifications, as well as one to one expert support when needed.
Every school and college is unique in terms of the challenges it encounters and the solutions it requires to meet the individual needs of children and young people. The Protective Behaviours Consortium has therefore, created a menu of training courses, programmes and services from which you can choose the best blend of support. Alternatively, the Safer@School Strategy offers time to discuss, plan and implement a bespoke package to help change the school or college culture to one where the fundamental concept of feeling safe is recognised and integrated fully into all aspects of the learning community.
