Managing behaviour

The short course on Managing Behaviour looks at the definitions of a good behaviour. The CACHE endorsed program helps in gaining knowledge regarding the vast spectrum of such a definition and the provides a peek into how dependent it is on the age of the child, cultural situation, and tolerance levels of the staff. The program explores the reasons behind poor behaviour and the strategies to improve the same. This course is apt for childcare practitioners working in a range of related scenarios.

Advantages of this course

This course identifies that most children, on most occasions, want to behave in a way that is reasonable and acceptable. However, there are always occasions when children may lack the emotional, social, or behaviour skills to cope with conflict and challenging situations. Occasionally, if a child has not had the opportunity to form an attachment to a parent/carer or has experienced harsh or neglectful parenting, the child might display anti-social behaviour. Behaviour can also be affected by diet, tiredness, and illness.
The learning in this course emphasises that positive behaviour should be encouraged, and defines inappropriate behaviour as that which affects others in a negative way. However, expectations of behaviour should be realistic. Age and stage of development should be taken into account, as should social and cultural background.
The course recommends that positive attention should be the reward for positive behaviour
Additional activities encourage you to reflect on your learning
There is also suggested extended reading that gives both practical information and links to websites to expand knowledge
On successful completion of this course, you will have the option of purchasing a CACHE certificate. This certificate must not be confused with nationally regulated qualification achievement.
