“The programme has been of great benefit to me. It informs my practice and has also improved my understanding of the rationale for some of the decisions made at school management leveland frameworks introduced. Most importantly, I believe, it has improved the standard of my relationships in school, both with students and colleagues.”
David Jackson, Pobalscoil Neasáin, Dublin 13.

The programme comprises four components: 

A 2-hour online interactive CPD session to introduce the programme and discuss its implementation in schools.This session is ideal for senior leaders and teachers responsible for rollout.
A 12-hour online interactive CPD programme will provide teachers with a theoretical framework and practical skills for positive behaviour management in their classrooms.
Monthly guided CPD online sessions facilitated by David Jackson, an experienced teacher and positive behaviour facilitator at Pobalscoil Neasáin, Dublin 13.
Finally, all participants will be invited to join an online community of practice where they can share their programme experiences and engage in professional conversations about applying it within their classroom or school.
