A wonderful post from Fiona Eddie. Music to my ears. Keeping a #CuriousNotFurious approach to struggles always leads to better outcomes for young people (and the school community as a whole). Moving from controlling to coaching is better for everyone. Less stressful for the child, their peers and less stressful for staff. It takes greater skill yet moves from quick fixes to sustainable improvements. Our mantra is that, with the right culture, training and systems to underpin, we can be “Insistent, persistent, consistent with a bucketful of kindness” in supporting young people to feel and do better. Thank you for an uplifting post, Fiona Eddie
