Course Overview
During this course you will understand how to identify challenging behaviour and the causes of this behaviour. For example we will look at the different stressors that can contribute to challenging behaviour and how this behaviour can escalate. We will also explore how we can deal with this behaviour in an effective way.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of the course, participants will have;

• Gained an understanding of when praise and rewards works best
• A better understanding of ways in which we can promote positive behaviour
• A better understanding of how to encourage positive behaviour by using methods such as ‘start chart.
• Explored that children have to understand the consequence of their behaviour.
• Gained an understanding of when and how to use ‘logical consequences’
