Supportive Behaviour Management

Feedback 

It's always useful to see what others have said about the SBM programme, so I have collated some comments for you to read.

I would also add that this programme works best where there is direct and regular review, involvement and discussion with staff and SMT - it most certainly is not a hands-off, "I ticked the box" type of package, it requires consistent and real engagement from all.

• Exclusions have been reduced. Children are taking more responsibility for their behaviour, less disruption in class, and increase in positive behaviour across the school.
• The initiatives taken on have allowed children to be reintegrated at a much quicker rate and with a more successful rate of continued schooling and improved behaviour.
• Pupils’ behaviour improved: fewer exclusions, fewer incidents, faster recovery time from incidents and pupils “owning up” and accepting responsibility for their actions
• Staff empowered to take responsibility and improved teamwork
• United approach to behaviour management

• Mike’s hands-on approach has been very useful in working with staff to deal with issues
• We have found Mike very positive, enthusiastic and friendly about everything, even challenging questions by adults as well as challenging behaviour by children.
• ..we have been delighted with Mike and found his support very constructive for the school’s development
• Very professional and supportive – flexible in his approach
• Mike's work has been pivotal in improving the pupils’ behaviour and in helping the staff to develop the skills to increase their confidence when dealing with potentially confrontational situations
• I can only sing Mike's praises and consider that with his support we have moved mountains
