Challenging Behaviour

If you are experiencing challenging behaviour at home with your child, we highly recommend exploring the collaborate proactive solution (CPS) approach devised by Dr Ross Greene. More information about CPS can be found on the Lives in the Balance website or you can read Dr Ross Greene's book 'The Explosive Child'. Copies of this book are available via the SEND library that Mrs Gandy is responsible for. Please contact Mrs Gandy on l.gandy@kempshott-inf.hants.sch.uk if you would like to loan a copy.
