Training for safe student moving and handling in schools

6th December 2018

Fresh confidence for your staff and your students

The moving and handling of students with varying needs and disabilities is a challenging one, especially in schools. The students safety while on the schools premises is a constant concern to everyone.

Our new moving and handling division ensures that your environments become safer places for carers, staff and students alike. Drawing on years of experience, we have developed a unique portfolio of training courses to educate staff, minimise injuries and maintain carer and student safety at all times. With courses structured to your needs, our training programmes offer value for money together with serious practical advice. Hands-on training with scenario based outcomes ensure carer staff have time to practice and develop real skills for the real situations that they will encounter in your school. We have skilled trainers available, who are all experienced in moving and handling and are able to offer solutions to the unique challenges you face.

Who benefits from training?

Some of the key areas that we have identified as benefiting from training are as follows:

Management – Compliance with the law, peace of mind, increased efficiency (Staff time), reduced likelihood of litigation and associated costs from injury.

Carer staff – Have more confidence in handling students, have more time due to the increased efficiency, are kept safer and have less risk of injury. Achieve consistent care standards.

Students – Are kept safer, are cared for better, have improved well-being, are more comfortable during manual handling.
