Positive Behaviour Management Night 2

Positive Behaviour Management

Audience:  Primary and Post-Primary Teachers 

Summary:

Classroom management is a concern for all who work in primary and post-primary schools. This course offers participants an opportunity to reflect on their approach to behaviour management in their classrooms. It includes:
An introduction to societal and whole school issues that impact student behaviour
An exploration of the importance of positive student-teacher relationships and the creation of a positive classroom environment.
A range of practical strategies to minimise and respond to low-level misbehaviour in the classroom
The course is anchored in practice and draws on the expertise and experiences of the participants. While the course has a practical focus, it examines positive behaviour management in the context of current research findings and best practices.
