“Adele’s energetic and engaging delivery, coupled with her in depth knowledge of supporting students and staff in multiple settings, created a safe, thought provoking and proactive environment where staff were able to work together to find solutions that will work for them and our school.”

Packages:

The best way to get consistent, positive behaviour in your school or college…
…is to have consistent support and training for your staff!

As such, we highly recommend that you book in a package – one-off trainings do not make lasting behaviour change.

In discussion with Adele and the Team we will create a package that best provides you the support that will shift behaviour in the right way for your setting, for your pupils and staff, in your community – in line with your budget.

Session Details:

Behaviour & Wellbeing

The second most cited reason that staff leave schools is due to behaviour – so supporting staff’s wellbeing whilst managing distressing behaviour is key. In this session staff will discover approaches and tools that effectively help them to deal with behaviour in the moment, as well as prepare, prevent and care for themselves and the team in a sustainable way.

Safety First (Learning Second)

Safety is experienced differently for each of us. Whilst some pupils can enter a room regulated, pen out, blazer on, ready to learn – others will be triggered by certain environments and/or people…unfortunately most of the time they can’t articulate that though – what we see is ‘the behaviour’ the backchatting, defiance, aggression and being told where to go…this is session is fundamental for anyone working with pupils with SEMH (Social, Emotional Mental Health issues) or Behaviour needs.

Building (and re-building) Relationships

These sessions focus on schoolwide and classroom strategies that ensure consistency, coherence – and the ability for staff to actually have time to do them, so that behaviour has a common vision across your school and pupils with behavioural needs are supported effectively through positive relationships.

Why can’t they just behave? – Trauma & Behaviour

Our pupils with SEMH and behaviour issues have unmet needs that they communicate through behaviour. The challenging aspect for staff who work with them, is that this can often be aggressive, violent, extreme, volatile, and unexpected. Learn why it happens and the best way to support it so that all can re-focus on learning.

Explicitly teaching Behaviour and self-regulation (in line with curriculum)

Sometimes we get annoyed (angry). We’ve told Sadia and Tom to share hockey stick…but they’re hitting one another with it instead…sometimes we do need to explicitly teach behaviour effectively and the tools that pupils can use to regulate themselves. Adele’s sessions support staff to do this within the curriculum – because what does an abstract noun like ‘share’ really mean anyway without teaching it?

Don’t take it personally – Neuroscience and pupils

The grunts, the stares, the rolled eyes – talking to a brick wall…all can be a common feeling when communicating with pupils when behaviour is getting in the way… and if we’re not careful, we start blaming ourselves. Using neuroscience discoveries of the brain with child and adolescent neurological development we can better create environments and learning spaces that support the young people rather than get them fighting against us.

Inclusivity, belonging and bias

Who gets the most behaviour points? Who gets the most rewards? What are our schools’ systemic biases and how does that affect behaviour outcomes? These sessions ask challenging questions and provide approaches to improving equality in your school so that all of your pupils are have an equal opportunity to education – even if it looks different.

International Approaches to Behaviour, Wellbeing & Inclusion

Adele has led research, interviews, taught and led training in schools in Finland, Dominican Republic and Costa Rica with a particular focus on learning about best practice with Behaviour, Wellbeing & Inclusion. In this session she shares her findings on some completely different ways to approach behaviour, and holds space for participants to take this inspiration as practical, next steps to improving practice in your own particular setting (wherever you are in the world).
