Literature pack designed to accompany a 3 day course on managing challenging behaviour in children with learning difficulties. The course is based on applied research carried out in residential homes, day care services and institutional settings. The aim of the course is to give carers the skills they need to manage challenging behaviour so that the environment for the users improves and the carers begin to develop more positive relationships with them. A non-confrontational, non-aggressive approach is advocated throughout.
