    • Provide feedback on behaviour improvement and celebrate successes.
  6. Data Collection and Monitoring:
    • Keep detailed records of students' behaviour and progress.
    • Use data to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions and make adjustments as needed.
  7. Professional Development:
    • Stay informed about the latest research and best practices in behaviour management.
    • Attend relevant workshops and training sessions to enhance your skills.
Strategies:
  1. Positive Reinforcement:

    • Create a classroom or school-wide reward system.
  2. Conflict Resolution:
    • Teach conflict resolution and problem-solving skills to students.
    • Facilitate discussions to address conflicts and promote understanding.
  3. Social Skills Training:

    • Collaborate with families to reinforce positive behaviour at home.
  6. Early Intervention:
    • Identify and address behavioural issues early on to prevent escalation.
    • Implement proactive strategies to create a positive and inclusive classroom environment.
  7. Professional Boundaries:
    • Establish clear professional boundaries while building positive relationships with students.
    • Collaborate with other school staff to ensure a coordinated approach to behaviour support.
