Peterhouse follows the PROACT-SCIPr UK approach, which is a model aimed at using positive and proactive strategies to help pupils manage their behaviour.
Within school, we view behaviour support as a whole picture for the young person. This is person specific in meeting their own sensory perception needs, motivation, and understanding alongside managing their expectations and meeting their communication needs. The aim for this work is to enable students to be ready to engage with learning and for the pupils themselves as well as staff to recognise when changes are required. We consider consistency of approach to be key to successful behaviour support. We seek to work in close partnership with parents, sharing ideas and agreeing responses to behaviour that can be used across different settings e.g. at home and in school.
With strategies in place to support the pupils in school, we aim to support them to be able to regulate their own behaviour with person centred strategies and to enable them to become successful autistic adults.
