Muireann Sadlier - Understanding & Managing Challenging Behaviour
Muireann will cover a broad understanding of what challenging behaviour actually is and why it manifests in our classrooms.
We look into the 'why' and the 'how' from a supportive and positive viewpoint.
We examine the reasons for challenging behaviour, the stages of escalation, calming methods, and most importantly the strategies we can use to calm a child and to restore wellbeing in a child-centered manner.
- The different functions of behaviour
- Proactive ways to manage challenging behaviour
- Teaching alternative behaviours
