How many working days are left until the summer holidays (after today)?

How can we make it easy for our pupils to behave well and hard to get it wrong?

Answer explanation

In previous sessions I've shown examples of:

-Defining what good behaviour looks and sounds like (with specific examples)

-Repeat the normative message (even when they're doing it right)

- Demonstrate what good behaviour looks like and draw attention to it when it happens.

- Consistently challenge behaviours that don't meet our expectations

- Always insist

- Model the behavioural norms you want to see

- Reinforce the norms when they're going well

- Quiz the class on behavioural expectations
