Behaviour Management Strategies That Work
Understand why behaviours happen and evidence-based strategies to manage them
Good behaviour management is seen as fundamental to effective teaching, learning and relationship building. Without harnessing the skills and strategies needed to manage and support groups of students and individuals with differing personalities, teachers and parents can find themselves ineffective and lost. As we all know, calm classrooms are pre-requisite to children’s learning. As teachers, we receive training on behaviour management theory but it is a different ball game when you end up in the classroom!
In this course you'll learn how to manage support children exhibiting unwanted behaviours (e.g. seeking attention, anxious, psychological need), using proven evidence based techniques and strategies. We cover everything from why behaviours occur, your role and the role of relationships in behaviour, how can get a bad relationship back on track, as well as in the moment techniques you can implement today to help. This class was originally presented as a series of 3 live webinars by psychologist Dr. Diksha Laungani and has been since re-organised and published for you.
