Therapeutic Thinking Principles of a Behaviour Curriculum

This course explores how a behaviour curriculum can reflect the ambition within the latest DfE Behaviour guidance. It will support schools to move from a reactive approache to detrimental behaviour to a methodology rooted in teaching, learning, and relationships. It considers how explicit teaching of behaviour, alongside a strong whole-school culture, can enable all pupils to develop the skills needed to succeed.

The Principles of a Behaviour Curriculum professional development day will examine how to design and implement a universal and targeted behaviour curriculum as part of a graduated approach, enabling schools to clearly define, teach, and assess valued behaviours across different stages of development. Participants will explore how relational practice, emotional literacy, and a sense of belonging underpin effective behaviour support.

The course will also support practitioners to recognise when additional input is needed to close the gap for individuals, using structured approaches to assess, plan, do, and review targeted interventions. It will emphasise the importance of aligning curriculum, policy, and practice to create consistent, inclusive environments where behaviour is understood as communication and all pupils are supported to develop values, beliefs and self-regulation.
