Overview

This Level 2 Certificate is designed to develop learners’ knowledge and understanding of distressed behaviour in children. Through this course, you will gain a broad awareness of the causes of distressed behaviour and learn appropriate ways to support children who display these behaviours.

This qualification is ideal for those working with children in educational, health, social care or community settings, providing essential insight to enhance your professional skills and improve outcomes for children.

There is an expectation that you would have a minimum of Level 1 English or skills at that level prior to enrolment.

To enrol on this Adult Learning course you must be aged 19 years or over.

You will study the following areas:

  • Awareness of distressed behaviour in children,

  • Principles of intervention when working with children who display distressed behaviour,

  • Distressed behaviour and mental health in children,

  • Distressed behaviour and learning disabilities in children,

  • Distressed behaviour, sensory processing conditions and autism spectrum conditions in children,

  • Legislation and guidance for an individual providing support to children displaying distressed behaviour.

Once you have enrolled on the course, you will be allocated a tutor and assigned to your learning platform. An induction will follow and then you will be able to commence your course.

You will be assessed by submitting individual units of work and will receive feedback for each unit as you progress. There is no final exam.

On completion of this course, you will be ready for the workplace or have enhanced your existing work skills. You could progress on to any other distance learning course or look at the Level 3 options.

The staff that will be supporting you through this course have sector expertise.


Everyone at the College was really helpful, and there’s lots of facilities, meaning it’s very easy to get your work done on time, and get good grades. The teaching and support was excellent, they were always on top of it, and made sure you got work done on time and you were challenged. Everyone is friendly and its really diverse, meaning you can get involved in lots of different things.

My experience at the college was enjoyable and productive, with thoroughly helpful people surrounding you, an excellent experience. I wasn’t expecting it to be as good as it was, with the work shop time and experience I had, it was a great two years preparing me for the next stage.

Edward Smith, BTEC student

The tutors were really supportive and it was all thanks to them that I have achieved what I have. I’ve also made loads of great friends and really enjoyed my time at the college.
