Training

What does the training cover?

We will show you how the brain works and help you to understand why students think and behave the way that they do. You will also be able to recognise the symptoms of the most common adolescent mental health issues

You will learn what Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is and how effective it is within education. You will also be able to confidently use the ReBalance activities and resources with students to achieve the maximum benefit. You will have the knowledge and confidence to develop your own programmes and pathways for individuals and groups in your school.

“The ReBalance training and activities also help me with my own mental well-being.”

- Secondary Teacher

How do you get trained?

As we mentioned before, we’d be delighted to come to your school or college and train you in person. One of our excellent trainers will come to your school and train you - over one day or two consecutive after-school inset sessions. It’s usually a lot of fun, and we get excellent feedback. Most importantly, all of our trainees feel enthused and well prepared to start making use of the programme.

Alternatively, Sam the programme author, has recorded the training so that you can train using our VLE. This can be completed over several days, in several sittings, and offers more flexibility for you to train when and where it suits you. And you’ll still get the full, unique ‘Sam’ experience too...

For both training methods, there is a short post-training assessment to ensure you’re ready to go.

What else do I get?

The short answer is lots!

You’ll get information sheets for parents and staff on the most common issues - exam anxiety for example. You’ll also get a series of questionnaires to assess for potential mental health issues which can also be used as evaluation tools.

You’ll get a big discount when you need more staff to complete the ReBalance training because we understand staff changes take place.

You’ll benefit from the help and advice of your trainers if you find any issues not covered by the existing activities. We’ll update the pool of activities and resources with new ones where there is an identified need, along with updating the existing ones regularly. You’ll have access to them all - whether they’re written for your school or another.

You’ll get e-mail support from our trainers and regular updates and information via the ReBalance newsletter.
