• Behavioural
A behavioural risk can often be confused with an emotional risk but the difference comes from how it is expressed, showing off around others, egging others on, excluding others through hatred or being extra hyperactive are all signs of a behavioural risk. Children playing in groups at the setting can vary from day to day. Dependant on the mood and behaviour of a child can determine whether a risk may occur. If a child is playing a physical game such as football and then becomes over confident and begins to show off this can lead to the child being physically injured through pushing themselves to far, or maybe injuring another child participating in the game. Playworkers therefore must monitor games to watch for this type of behaviour
