After any incident in school, opportunities to reflect (for both the pupil and adult) must be given so that everyone can move forward together.
In this episode of School Behaviour Secrets, we interview SEMH expert, Dean Cotton. Together, we discuss the power of reflection and he reveals his systematic approach to breaking negative behaviour cycles - Post Incident Learning.
