Practitioner Perspective: Why the INPP Course Stands Out

At INPP UK, we value reflective practice and the voices of those who are training to work directly with children and families. Feedback from practitioners in training provides an important window into how our approach supports learning, confidence, and professional development.

Following Module Two of the one-year INPP Postgraduate Practitioner Course, one trainee shared their experience of the programme so far—and why the INPP method has stood out among other approaches they have explored.

A Clear, Structured Path to Understanding

Having already encountered different models of reflex integration, this practitioner described the INPP course as “the most structured and easy to follow.” For many professionals working in education, therapy, or child development, clarity and coherence are essential. The INPP method is deliberately designed to build knowledge step by step, ensuring that theory, observation, and practice are closely linked.

This structured layout helps concepts to embed over time, rather than feeling fragmented or overwhelming. As the trainee reflected, this organisation made the learning far easier to absorb and apply in practice.

The Impact of In-Person Training

Module Two includes an intensive in-person week focused on practical assessment skills used when working with children. This element of the course was described as particularly impactful. Clear explanations, guided practice, and the opportunity to ask questions in real time all contributed to a deeper understanding of the assessment process.

The trainee highlighted how this week increased their confidence in working with children, especially in carrying out thorough assessments that lead to meaningful, reliable outcomes. This confidence is crucial—not only for professional assurance, but also for producing clear, well-informed reports that genuinely support parents and schools.

Confidence Through Method, Not Guesswork

In contrast to other modalities the practitioner had explored, which were described as feeling “chaotic” or difficult to follow, the INPP approach was experienced as grounded and methodical. This consistency supports practitioners who value evidence-informed practice and want a clear framework they can rely on when assessing and supporting children.

For this trainee, the INPP method aligned closely with their own learning style—logical, progressive, and rooted in observable outcomes.

Looking Ahead

With the next in-person week focusing on the implementation of the INPP developmental exercise programme, the practitioner expressed strong enthusiasm for continuing their training. They also shared a clear message for others working with children:

All childcare professionals should have access to this kind of training.

At INPP UK, our aim is to equip practitioners with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to identify and address underlying developmental immaturity in a structured, ethical, and effective way. Feedback such as this reinforces the importance of high-quality training that supports both professional growth and positive outcomes for children.

If you are interested in deepening your understanding of child development through a clear and well-established framework, the INPP Postgraduate Practitioner Course offers a comprehensive pathway grounded in decades of clinical experience.
