Staff Training

In 2023/24, school suspensions rose 21% and exclusions 16%. There has long been a mismanagement of trauma and neurodivergence in schools. TCS equips educators with the tools — and the perspective — to change that.

What It Covers

Professional development for educators focused on behaviour management and trauma-informed approaches. The director's lived experience enables him to communicate effective strategies that maximise positive outcomes for all students — particularly those with trauma or neurodivergence.

  • Understanding trauma and its impact on behaviour — not just managing symptoms
  • Supporting neurodivergent students effectively in mainstream settings
  • Practical behaviour management strategies grounded in lived experience
  • Building stronger, more trusting relationships between staff and students

Why It Matters

When educators are equipped to understand rather than react, outcomes improve for every student — not just those with additional needs.

Most behaviour management training is delivered by people who have never experienced the systems they're describing. TCS training is different: it's delivered by someone who has lived it, survived it, and gone on to study it — bringing a perspective no textbook can replicate.

Who It's For

  • Pastoral leaders and heads of year
  • SENCOs and inclusion leads
  • Teaching staff working with high-needs or challenging cohorts
  • School leadership teams developing whole-school behaviour policy

Format & Accreditation

Available as a half-day or full-day session — flexible to fit your school's timetable and staff capacity. Sessions can be structured to count towards CPD accreditation requirements.

Staff training works best as part of a whole-school approach.
