What can we do with disruptive children? | Debbie Breeze | TEDxNantwich

Believing that children do well if they can, Debbie is passionate about uncovering and helping other professionals to understand the reasons for disruptive behaviour and the right of these children to appropriate services and approaches within mainstream education. ‘There is always a reason for every behaviour, we must ask which unmet need is at work here? Then do all we can to find a solution’.
Debbie is well placed to argue that it is our moral responsibility to radically rethink how our education system views and responds to its most vulnerable and distressed pupils within our mainstream schools.
