Consistent Management Plan Template

The table below is an example of how a consistent management plan could be discussed with all staff and then drawn up. The purpose of this would be to ensure a highly consistent approach from staff towards the challenging behaviours displayed by the child concerned. This could result in clear, consistent boundaries for the child, in time decreasing the likelihood of occurrence of the higher categories and also decreasing the degree of anxiety for staff involved – based on a risk assessment.

It is crucial that all staff are involved within the process so that this plan can be shared with supply staff if necessary.

Upon completion, it is recommended that parents/carers are invited in to view the plan and discuss how they could draw up a similar plan for home, therefore providing consistency both at home and school.

It is also recommended that the child concerned should be involved as much as possible within this process, therefore, enabling the child to begin to take ownership & responsibility for their actions.
