How to Achieve Outstanding Behaviour
‘Children will follow people before they follow rules’
Training Time: 9.30am to 3.30pm
A strong and consistent approach to behaviour is crucial for high quality school cultures which promote excellence in personal, social, and academic growth. It is also vital to ensure every child/young person can learn without disruption and to maintain teachers’ sanity and morale!
With the release of the 2022 DFE Behaviour guidance, this course will help school leaders explore their current models of behaviour and consider how to develop their whole school ‘behaviour curriculum’, leadership vision and high impact, effective behaviour management approaches.
This training will enable you to reflect on your approach to behaviour management and understand how factors such as trauma, relationships and belonging can affect children’s behaviour.
This training will support leaders and teachers to create a positive culture for behaviour that enables pupils and staff to thrive.
There are four main sessions of the training:
- Creating and Leading a Coherent Approach to Behaviour
- Challenging Behaviour and How to Overcome and Manage it Effectively
- Managing Low Level Disruption
- Trauma Informed Behaviour
Training Outline
- Creating and Leading a Coherent Approach to Behaviour
- Explore the three R’s of a behaviour curriculum – relationships, response and routines
- Practical strategies to support reviewing and developing your whole school approach to create a positive behaviour culture in your school.
- Understanding the links between behaviour and Ofsted’s inspection framework
- Challenging Behaviour and How to Overcome and Manage it Effectively
Teachers and schools do not get to decide if we have challenging children in our classrooms, but we can decide how we respond! Managing and responding to challenging behaviour can be energy draining, frustrating, and upsetting for staff, pupils and parents. This session of training is packed full of practical ideas and strategies to give you tools and strategies to feel more confident in establishing positive classroom behaviour systems and respond proactively to challenging behaviours to remove some of the fear and frustration of these situations.
- Considering protective factors to support a positive classroom climate
- Exploring behaviour for learning, and classroom management techniques
- Conflict resolution
- Establishing a consistent whole-school approach to managing ‘challenging’ pupils
- Providing you with strategies to de-escalate and manage challenging behaviour situations
- Managing Low Level Disruption
Low-level disruption and poor behaviour is a significant concern for many schools and actually more of an issue with Ofsted than the management of children with high level behaviour issues.. This session is not only about finding strategies that can be used to support and encourage positive behaviour, but also to ensure that our pastoral and academic programmes support disengaged learners in maximising their potential, both as learners and as young adults who will make great contributions to society.
- Developing ways of setting high expectations and a consistent approach to the management of low level behaviour.
- Exploring the importance of relationships and ways to improve them
- Investigating the motivations of learners, especially those who struggle to ‘fit in’ or follow the rules
- Suggesting effective strategies to deal with negative behaviours, both inside and outside the classroom
- Trauma Informed Behaviour
With an increasing recognition of the prevalence of trauma and the KCSIE identifying ‘adverse childhood experiences’ as an area for school awareness, this session of the training course will help develop your understanding of trauma and how you can support children and young people in your setting, who may have experienced trauma. This course will support those working with children and young people to be aware of the effects of traumatic experiences and how trauma might present in pupils’ behaviour. You will explore ways to proactively respond to children and young people ‘in the moment’ when they are exhibiting trauma-informed behaviours and other protective strategies to support pupils ‘out of the moment’.
