Brief Guide to the Mental Capacity Act
Supporting parents and carers - A trainer’s guide to
positive behaviour strategies
Sharon Paley, Chris Stirling and Mark Wakefield
Parents and carers are often the most important
influence on a child’s life and yet they very rarely
receive training in strategies to help them deal with
challenging behaviour. Training delivered by people
who are in, or have been in, the same situation as
themselves is likely to be more meaningful and
produce a more positive response.
This trainer’s guide is intended to provide parents
and carers, as well as professional trainers, with
materials to deliver training in positive behaviour
strategies. The guide includes a CD-ROM with
PowerPoint presentation and handouts and,
with the clearly set out session plans, provides a
comprehensive course that is designed to be
easily understood by those who may have limited
formal training.
