Working with families. Children can change. 1
Description
Jack was excluded from school for 18 months. Now doing well back in school, this is the story of how he achieved it. The NHS Marlborough Education Centre in London works with groups of families together to tackle severe behaviour problems. All the parents and children discuss each pupil's behaviour. Children have individual behaviour targets and parents are expected to give consequences for good or bad behaviour at school. Not only do parents support and advise each other but the children too. Jack and his mother Lorraine came here four mornings a week. After a few months, both had changed. "I had to take control and show Jack I was in control", says Lorraine. Marlborough staff are now encouraging primary and secondary schools to use the centre's multi-family group approach within schools.
