When Behaviour Strategies Work… But Make Things Worse

Have you ever used a behaviour strategy that worked brilliantly in the moment - only to find the same behaviour came back again the next day? And the next?
In this episode of School Behaviour Secrets, we explore why some short-term behaviour strategies appear to work because they reduce the immediate tension but can accidentally teach pupils or whole classes habits that make behaviour harder in the long run.
Most importantly, you’ll discover three simple questions that help break the cycle and move you – and your students - forwards.
