Challenging behaviour systems in practice

This presentation by Dr. Clare Caughey, Intensive Support Coordinator at Tor Bank School, explores effective strategies for managing challenging behaviors in pupils with severe and profound learning difficulties. Focusing on a case study of a 12-year-old boy named Conor, who has ADHD and transferred to Tor Bank with increased behavioral needs, the talk highlights the complexity of these cases. It discusses tailored support systems including peer support panels, sensory circuits, multi-disciplinary discussions, and onward referrals for ASD diagnosis. Attendees will gain insights into behavioral recommendations and mental health considerations in an educational setting.
