Behaviour

It is important to create a sense of belonging and think about the context for children’s behaviour and their engagement with learning.

We advise that conversations about behaviour should actually be conversations about well-being, setting clear expectations about school values and understanding what are the barriers to learning.

Creating a behaviour policy that gives staff confidence

Supporting positive behaviour, social and emotional skills is a challenging part of professional practice. Staff need time to talk about the behaviour policy, collaborate with colleagues and refer students with specific need for extra help.

Behaviour management

Supporting positive behaviour for learning is both a challenging and rewarding part of professional practice.
