Behaviour Resource Bank

This Behaviour Resource Bank is a compilation of SESS Advice Sheets which present some of the many strategies that may assist schools to meet the needs of pupils who display challenging behaviour related to special educational needs. The material covers both the preventative and management aspects of dealing with challenging behaviour and can be adapted to suit particular situations. This material may not be universally applicable or may not have universal appeal. Rather it is an initial attempt to provide schools with concrete support that may be of use to staff in their efforts to work with all pupils, and particularly those who display challenging behaviour. It is neither prescriptive nor all-encompassing; it is likely that many strategies, skills and approaches that work are not included here and it is also possible that different approaches to what is suggested here are also effective. School personnel may have to adapt it to suit their own particular situations and needs, which will vary according to the age and ability of pupils and particular circumstances that may prevail in any given class. Schools and school personnel may also consider adding their own material to the Resource Bank of ideas that they have found effective in the prevention and management of challenging The strategies in the Resource Bank supplement advice provided in SESS In-School Seminars.
