We hear all the time that children are becoming more challenging in their behaviour and that staff often struggle to respond effectively when kids are pushing limits or “melting down”. This workshop aims to keep things simple – we focus on effective strategies for everyday use that help kids get back on track with a minimum of confrontation: if we want cool, respectful kids then we have to walk the talk ourselves.
We use games and practical activities to show how to approach challenging behaviour with a cool head and positive purpose.
Topics
- Helping children to get along with each other – supporting learning in OSCAR
- Communication with children
- Low-key discipline approaches for everyday use
- Effective responses to persistent challenging behaviour
