How to create a risk management plan around a child with BESD
29 January 2014 – 08.45 to 12.15 pm
We often see children in schools whose behaviour is driven by emotional issues resulting
in crisis behaviour. Sometimes staff are unclear in the role they are legally permitted to
take to support that child, whether their behaviour is withdrawn and emotional or violent
and aggressive. This course covers the principles that underlie this behaviour, what the
law says about physical contact, and how to draw up a robust plan to manage the
behaviour and how to record incidents. Please note this is NOT a course about how to
restrain.
Target Audience: Colleagues who have children who need to be held or supported
through emotional trauma

CREATIVE APPROACHES TO NURTURING AND LEARNING
Description:
Poor behaviour and learning is compromised by
strong emotions. Strong emotions can lead
children to become troubled and can create
feelings of fear, worry, uneasiness and dread.
Children can act out their strong emotions through
aggression and restlessness. They can also have
poor concentration, low self-esteem and become
disengaged in learning.
Through creative approaches using dramatherapy
skills, participants will learn how to identify and track
emotions. They will learn to create a “safe space,”
both internally and externally. Through action
methods, playful exercises and the use of metaphor
and imagery, participants will learn how to facilitate
change so that strong feelings in children and adults
are contained and managed skilfully. This enables
participants to create emotionally healthy and safe
classrooms and schools.
Outcomes:
Participants will be able to:
1
2
3
Identify, track and manage strong emotions that lead to “acting out,”
behaviour
Create emotionally safe and supportive classrooms and schools
Enhance their own capacity to see and act upon creative options in the
moment of “fire,”/confrontation.
Audience: Teaching Assistants, SENCOs, Higher Level Teaching Assistants,
Class Teachers and Newly Qualified Teachers, Learning Mentors
Duration: Half day - 09.00 to 12.30 on Friday 28 March 2014
Venue: Future House (Literacy Room)

Are Lunchtimes in your school giving you a headache? If so, don’t worry – you’re not
alone. The SEBD Team have found that challenging behaviour at lunchtimes is a
problem common to many schools. It was for this reason that our ‘BEING BUDDIES’
lunchtime resource was developed.
We are presenting a morning workshop full of ideas and strategies to help you make
lunchtimes a more positive experience for your children, and we will look closely at how
you can set up your own Lunchtime Buddying Scheme. We will also take time to
discuss the role of adults on the playground at lunchtimes.
During the morning, there will be opportunities to share ideas and experiences with
colleagues from a range of primary schools in our city.
Target Audience: primary schools’ teaching staff/Learning Mentors with an interest in
lunchtimes
