Behaviour: How to engage with hard-to-reach children Connected - The Thrive® Podcast

In this episode, we’re talking about behaviour and the importance of asking why a child or young person is behaving the way they are. My guest is author, behaviour specialist and teacher Adele Bates who works with specialist and mainstream schools in the UK and abroad on everything from writing behaviour policies to tackling aggressive behaviour in the classroom. Adele will be delivering a CPD keynote for Thrive later this spring looking at how educators can engage with hard-to-reach children whose behaviour may be particularly concerning.
