If there is one thing NOT to do after the summer, it’s to apply harmful, blanket behaviour policies to year groups.
Instead, try these:
Trauma Informed Schools
CPAG (CPAG in Scotland too)
1 in 4
Restorative Practice
Social Justice in Schools
EEF Behaviour
Teacher Bias/Implicit Bias
Pivotal Education
ACEs (though, read critically, there’s some misinformation out there)

I will have missed many here (why I don’t do lists like this very often 🤭)
But there is ALWAYS an underlying reason. Be that teacher who listens, who is patient and who empathises.
It’s not easy but it’s vital.
