Working with children is undoubtedly one of the best professions in the world. However, at some point, members of school staff may be involved in dealing with confrontation and conflict as well as physically handling, assisting or holding a child. This can cause significant anxiety and stress for all involved.
At React UK we provide schools with a range of training programmes to support school staff in dealing with the significant issues they face each day at work.

Safety at Work Act 1974, all employers have a legal duty to ensure the health, safety and welfare at work of their employees. Section 2 of the Act, states it shall be the duty of
