"What nurture has enabled us to do is help children understand their feelings, that it’s ok to feel that, and when the time is right, we can talk to them about what is right and what is wrong. I think nurture sometimes gets mistaken for a ‘soft touch’ – children need to understand why something has not gone right, and nurture has really truly enabled us to do that." ❤️ Hear from James Roach, CEO of the Inclusive Multi Academy Trust, on how using a relational approach has improved pupil #behaviour.

This Schools Week article states that school staff have noticed an increase in disruptive behaviour from pupils, which has negatively impacted their mental health. The article says that '84% of those who believe verbal and physical abuse has increased “believe that poor behaviour arises due to lack of provision for their unmet needs (basic physical needs, emotional needs or mental health.”' 📝 It's important that schools identify what support each pupil needs and any difficulties that are affecting their learning, causing them to be disruptive. This is where the Boxall Profile® Online can help. Using the Boxall Profile® Online is the best way to identify and address any hidden social, emotional and mental health issues, to ensure that every child and young person gets the support they need to engage fully with their education. It helps school staff to understand pupil's difficulties and to put in place nurturing interventions that can help to improve their learning and behaviour. ✨
