Training and Courses

INPP (Scotland) Limited is recognised by the GTC as CPD Providers. School based training is provided and tailored to the specific needs of the school and staff that require further professional development in responding to the individual needs of children and adolescents with specific learning and/or emotional and behavioural difficulties.  These courses cover a range of topics providing a good opportunity for schools to gain a deeper insight into the physical considerations of pupils with specific learning and/or emotional and behavioural difficulties and become more informed as how best to cater for these pupils needs, and where possible how to implement physical exercises to help ameliorate pupils limitations and barriers to learning.

We are also designated providers of the ‘One Day Course in the Use of the INPP Schools Programme.’  This programme is a specific and unique course developed by Sally Goddard-Blythe at INPP in Chester.

The following national courses are available:

One Day Course in the Use of the INPP Schools Programme

Cost = £150 and is inclusive of refreshments, lunch and manual (Please note that this manual is the copyright of INPP in Chester)

This provides an underpinning theory of the significance of the retention of primitive reflexes and how this can detrimentally influence learning and behaviour.  The course teaches participants how to complete a short test battery.  A programme of physical exercises is taught to allow teachers to address retained primitive reflexes.
