Register NowSupporting students with behaviours you find challenging?
Are you caught between compliance-based behaviour plans (even those labelled as “positive”) and what you know your students actually need?
Do you feel a caring, relationship-based approach is right, but struggle to use it in a structured way with a full class and limited support?
If so, this free live training is for you.
What You’ll Learn in This Free Online Class
You’ll be introduced to The Connected Caregiver Framework for Supporting Behaviour, a simple approach to understanding and responding to challenging behaviours without sacrificing connection or consistency.
We’ll explore:
Why connection isn’t just nice, it’s necessary. How relationship-based, neuro-affirming strategies lead to better behaviour outcomes in the classroom.
How to work out what’s really going on. What to notice about the student, the classroom, and the tasks they’re expected to do.
How to respond in ways that create lasting change. A structured, compassionate framework that supports emotional growth, strengthens relationships and makes the school day smoother for everyone.
This isn’t about being soft or strict. It’s about being smart, supported and connected.
Who will benefit from this training?
Classroom teachers, learning support and inclusion staff, school leaders, and anyone at school supporting kids with behaviours they find challenging.
If you’ve felt limited by rigid, compliance-based approaches, or feel caring approaches lack structure, this 60-minute training is for you.
