I always worked with parents and carers as well, sending out postcards or making phone calls to tell them their child's been brilliant that day. It only takes a few seconds to do but the rewards can be huge. I might start a class and tell them I've got two brilliant phone calls home to give out. So they're competing with themselves to try and be the best that they can. But never promise something you're not going to deliver.

A lot of the worst behaviours are when children feel rejected so they strive towards that. It's about resetting that mindset in that child. So rather than wanting for example to be the class clown, the label they've given themself is reframed so they’re the better learner, or the most organised, or best at sport. It’s recognising where can they achieve. Finding that is the key to getting it right.
