Apollo Behaviour Support Team

When? Why? How? 

Taking Time is a key component in maintaining a safe, productive and calm learning environment. 

Establishing clear routines and expectations surrounding when time is needed, why we take ourselves away from the group and how we self regulate are essential. 

Have a listen to our ideas and suggestions of how these questions can be answered and how a clear strategy can be established to promote positive self regulation across the age groups. 

'Othering' 

Are the interventions we put in place supporting the child's progress
or are we unintentionally 'othering' them? 

*watch out for the cough 18 minutes in!' 
*battery issues at 22 minutes in too- keeping it fresh guys!

Supporting children from the bottom up. 

Maslow's hierarchy of needs, we have all heard of it, but do we give it the right consideration in our classrooms? 

When is it celebrated and encouraged? And when is it seen as a negative or a problem? 

Interesting subject, with lots of angles...have a listen...let us know your thoughts and your experiences with competitiveness in schools. 

What does safe mean to you? 

All of us work better when we are somewhere we feel safe. How to you ensure you can create a 'safe' learning space for all? 

Is risk discussed? 

Is thinking time highlighted? 

Is failure modelled? 

Give us a listen and we would love to hear your thoughts and your methods to create a safe space ......
