Sir Keith Park School has several CPI on our staff. This on site expertise allows us to introduce a holistic behaviour support programme to our entire staff as part of in service training.

All staff at Sir Keith Park School undertake the 12 hour basic training programme and are supported by ongoing refreshers, practice sessions and further specific training as required.
Individual programmes are developed by our transdisciplinary behaviour management team.
