How do you communicate in the Uniformed Protective Services?
This series of teaching sessions and an interactive workshop is designed to support teaching of the Uniformed Protective Services L3 BTEC. The sessions explore what it means to communicate well in a range of Uniformed Protective Services contexts as students develop their verbal communication skills in face-to-face scenarios. It also develops students’ radio communication skills as they explore standard voice procedure, the phonetic alphabet and digits, and prowords in a range of radio communication scenarios.
Session 1: Introduction to communication (Unit 5: C1)
Session 2: Radio communication (Unit 5: C1)
Workshop: Teams, tension and communication in disaster relief. (Unit 2: F, Unit 5: B, Unit 5: C1)
These adaptable lessons focus on core learnings from Unit 5 of the UPS course. The sessions can be used individually and independently but work well together as a scheme of work, building on learnings throughout the session to apply in the workshop.
