As a mother and teacher, having spent many years in the classroom and learning support departments, I have learnt that a real change in children’s behaviour and learning comes from a joined up approach. I am in a unique position of knowing what goes on inside the classroom and the different sensitivities of children. There is so much we can do at home if we are curious about children’s behaviour and learning. We need to work together for positive change to actually happen.

The end results are:

• children who cooperate more with their parents and teachers

• bedtimes that get easier

• mealtimes that are more enjoyable

• morning routines that are less of a battle

• homework that becomes easier to manage

When you finally understands why your child is the way they are and how you can help it is transformational.
