Building Self Regulation in Children

This Building Self Regulation & Behaviour Management in Early Years training course is suitable for all practitioners working with children. The use of behaviour management techniques is often misunderstood when working with young children. This course will introduce practitioners to the importance of using positive techniques with young children and the role that building self-resilience plays in the future development of the child. We aim to increase awareness of the causes of behavioural concerns by looking at some of the psychology behind poor behaviour as well as considering the background and feelings of the child. Through the adult led use of the positive management strategies we discuss, we firmly believe that most behavioural issues can be avoided.

Behaviour Management in Early Years

We will look at relevant strategies to support managing children’s behaviour. This gives practitioners a simple and effective route to deal with everyday occurrences as well as look at more extreme circumstances. We also discuss involving parents in the process and the importance of making them aware of your strategies.

This course is suitable for all practitioners working with children. Due to the benefit of having a unified approach across a setting this course is best delivered or disseminated to all staff in your setting. It will best support practitioners as they consider strategies to promote positive behaviour throughout their setting.
