All staff needs to recognize and highlight good behaviour when it occurs and know how to deal with inappropriate behaviour . If inappropriate behaviour of the child or a young person is temporary and if we are able to manage it within the setting, then there is no need to refer them to a professional. According to Guidance for Safer Working Practice for Adults who work with Children and Young People in Education Settings (2009, p. 20) “Where children display difficult or challenging behavior, adults must follow the behavior policy outlined by their school or service and use strategies appropriate to the circumstance and situation.” Knowing the policy of the school will enable us to work more effectively with the children.
