A behaviour contract (or behavior contract for the US teachers) can be a powerful tool for improving unacceptable student behavior. When a student acknowledges their behaviours and the impact on learning for themselves and others, it can lead to massive change. This PDF contract is designed to be talked through with the student, with them having an input on the steps they can take to change their behavior. Having the consequences written will help the student focus on improvement. Ideally the student, teacher and parent/guardian should sign the contract. There are two different versions included and both versions are available with US and UK spellings.

They became brilliant at it and the frequent practice led to fantastic progress in their longer form creative writing. We would sometimes read the example paragraph together, before, during or after they write. It was fun to identify similar themes to their own stories. If we had time, or if they were struggling, we’d look at the questions together and see if pair, group or class discussion helped them get started."
