Support Every Learner: Thrive CPD Training for Teachers

Today’s classroom is a busy, complex, and emotionally charged environment. Educators need to teach, support, manage behaviour, and connect with learners who may be carrying far more than their school bags.

Classrooms include pupils with a range of needs. This is especially true in mainstream settings that support children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) needs. In these environments, teachers do more than deliver lessons. They play a key role in helping pupils feel safe, understood, and ready to learn.

This is where the Thrive Approach can help. Teaching Personnel offers access to Thrive CPD. This exclusive training opportunity helps teachers understand behaviour, support emotional development, and manage real-world classroom challenges with confidence.

What is the Thrive Approach?
The Thrive Approach is built on neuroscience and child development. It gives teachers practical ways to understand behaviour as a form of communication. It helps you connect with pupils, especially those with SEND or SEMH needs. So you can support pupils’ emotional well-being and resilience and help them regulate their behaviour.

You will

Learn how to create safe and calm classrooms
Feel more confident supporting pupils through emotional ups and downs
Have strategies you can use straight away.

Why it matters
Classrooms now include more children with complex needs. In England, SEMH needs are one of the most common types of special educational needs. According to the latest government data, over 1.7 million pupils in England have some form of SEN, including SEMH. Whether you work in mainstream or SEND settings, you're likely to support pupils with autism, ADHD, trauma, or emotional regulation challenges.

Master the skills to support every child, even in the toughest classrooms. Thrive training helps you:

Understand and manage behaviour in a new way
Build trust with pupils who find it hard to engage
Support children to manage their emotions
Stay calm and in control during difficult moments
Create a sense of safety, belonging, and calmness in your classroom

What’s in it for you?
Teaching Personnel offers Thrive CPD at no cost to eligible educators. This means you can build new skills without expense. But that is not the only benefit.

You’ll also:

Gain a recognised certification
Stand out in the employment market
Get priority for specialist placements
Have access to support from a Thrive-trained educator network
Strengthen your confidence and classroom impact

You’ll also be part of a growing network of over 30,000 SEND and SEMH specialists trained in the Thrive Approach, all working to make classrooms more inclusive and supportive. You will have access to ongoing support through our network of Thrive-trained educators sharing classroom techniques across different school settings, including SEND and mainstream classrooms.

Teach with impact
Thrive is not only a theory. With our evidence-led SEND-focused training, developed by Thrive, you’ll gain proven techniques to de-escalate situations, promote positive behaviour, and create a supportive environment. Thrive training is about real strategies for real situations. From morning transitions to playground challenges, you will be better equipped to respond in a way that helps pupils feel seen and supported.

If you’re new to the profession or experienced and ready to grow, Thrive can deepen your impact. It is especially useful for those working with pupils who may be at risk of exclusion or struggling to access learning.

What schools are looking for
Schools are crying out for skilled staff who can handle the demands of inclusive classrooms. Thrive-certified educators stand out as the specialists every school needs.

Take the next step
Our pupils need more than subject knowledge. They need teachers who understand how to build relationships, reduce conflict, and support their wellbeing. By becoming a Thrive-trained educator through Teaching Personnel, you can be that teacher.

Start your training. Grow your impact. And thrive in your school this autumn.
