Welcome to our 9th episode of The Collaborative Approach in Education Podcast, "Changing the Narrative: Positive Approaches to Challenging Behaviours."

In this episode, we’ll delve into the crucial role we play in shaping young children's behaviours and how understanding the behaviours they are communicating to us can lead to positive outcomes in early childhood education.

We'll explore practical strategies for supporting children in regulating their emotions and discuss how the environment plays a vital role in this process. By creating nurturing and supportive spaces, we can help children learn to manage their emotions effectively, leading to more positive behaviours.

We will also focus on positive approaches to addressing challenging behaviours, emphasising empathy, patience, and understanding. By viewing behaviours as a form of communication, we can transform challenges into opportunities for growth and connection.

Join us as we uncover the powerful connection between emotions and behaviours and learn how using the environment can support and empower children to thrive emotionally and socially.
