Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare
Your Specialisation: Advanced Certificate in Positive Behaviour Support
The Advanced Certificate in Positive Behaviour Support is a natural companion to the Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare, as it delves deeper into the themes of supporting children and young people who have experienced harm and/or abuse, as well as promoting positive outcomes and well-being. By exploring the complexities of behaviour support and management in residential childcare, learners can develop a more nuanced understanding of how to create a supportive environment that fosters positive relationships and social awareness. This specialisation builds upon the foundational knowledge gained in modules such as Supporting Children and Young People in Residential Childcare to Achieve their Learning Potential and Supporting Attachment and Positive Relationships for Children and Young People.
The Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare is a fully accredited qualification that provides a comprehensive understanding of the principles and practices of residential childcare, while the Advanced Certificate in Positive Behaviour Support is a non-credit-bearing professional development programme that focuses on sharpening practical expertise in a specific area.

By combining both, learners can gain a unique blend of theoretical knowledge and practical skills that can be applied in real-world settings.
Holding both the Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare and the Advanced Certificate in Positive Behaviour Support can open up a range of career opportunities in residential childcare settings, particularly in roles that involve supporting children and young people with complex needs or challenging behaviours.
