Challenging Behaviour

This presentation will outline a range of successful strategies and approaches to manage the behaviour and learning needs of children and young persons. Developing a range of rules and rituals for learning complimented by personalised problem solving approaches will be outlined through application of the SF3R behaviour and learning model. Building rapport, trust and pride will be central in providing change management of disaffected, demanding and defiant learners.

The Curious case of ADHD and ASD

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Aspergers Syndrome are terms used to describe specific symptoms that are associated with a range of learning, social, emotional and behavioural difficulties. In truth individuals affected by ADHD and AS often have a number of overlapping issues. Understanding the range of symptoms, early intervention and proactive management systems are the key elements in supporting individuals concerned in school, with peers and families.

The Bully, the Victim and the Bystander

Bullying blights many lives. This presentation will look at the issue of bullying from the perspective of the bully and the victim and will consider the responsibility of the bystanders. We will also look at the impact of bullying of children within the SEN spectrum and consider a range of anti-bullying policies and strategies in order to respond to this issue.

No Two Children the same

An obvious statement, however some are more different and demanding than others. This presentation will explore some of the risk factors that result in non traditional learners and demystify a host of SEN terms including ASD, ADHD, BD, CD and ODD as well as a range of environmental factors. Key management options will be outlined to respond to these issues in terms of Structure, Flexibility, Respect, Relationships and Role Models. 

The language of learning

How to get the best out of more challenging learners will not be as a result of a specific school, particular curriculum course or all the best multi-media resources in the world. The key will always be ‘people skills’ in reaching and teaching disaffected, disruptive and even defiant learners. Communication is king in developing proactive rapport, respect and relationships. This presentation will explore teacher style and substance, identifying strategies and techniques to infuse and diffuse specific situations.

The “M Factor”: Mood and Motivation Management

It’s not behaviour management and it never has been. It is mood management, Success in behaviour and learning are all about motivation, desire and generating a proactive learning mood. This presentation will consider the issues of mood and motivation reviewing key behaviour management and teaching skills, the language of learning, the power of praise and creating whole class positivity.

New!  Girls & Boys : Equal but Different

During the past decade there have been a huge number of studies into the differences of brains between men and women. This course will explore the science, environmental and societal factors to consider the implications for learning and development of children and young persons.

The Power of Parents

Yes, some parents can be tricky but when you consider the whole child, failure to consider the parents especially in the education of a learner who may be underachieving or failing in school is a neglect of duty of care. How can we achieve every child matters without making sure that every parent/carer matters too? Failure to engage the parents in the education of the child will usually mean that the child will fail at some time in the educational system. Parents have the power, we have the process and purpose. We need to work towards establishing a proactive relationship with parents and carers to help those most at risk from failing in our schools.
