Summary
-
Since the project began in September 2003 a comprehensive training programme has been developed to provide staff,pupils and parents with a range of positive strategies for addressing issues of behaviour and attendance. 18 partner schools, from Primary,Secondary and Special EBD schools make up the Behaviour Improvement Project in Sefton. All the schools appointed a Lead Behaviour Professional (LBP) who leads the training and cascading of training to all staff.The LBP is a senior member of staff who models appropriate positive interventions with all members of the school community.
