Communicating with children and managing behavior
This
is a 5 hour school based training
course for Lunchtime staff focusing on developing good practice issues,
including communicating with children, behaviour management, the role
of the supervisor, and communication within the school
It will improve the school lunch time
in a number of important ways. Initially the trainer will meet with
the headteacher/ manager to explore lunchtime practices and areas to
be developed. The training needs of the school lunch time supervisors
will also be identified. The supervisors will then be provided
with 2 school-based half day training sessions focusing on a range
of relevant areas including communication skills and behavior management. A
feedback and action planning session will take place at the end of
the training to enable lunchtime supervisors and their managers to
identify further whole school practices that can contribute to happy
lunchtimes.

Play at lunchtime
If children are playing happily at lunchtime, problems such as fighting
and bullying will decrease, and the afternoon will run smoothly.

the same time as encouraging play. This workshop enables lunchtime
supervisors to offer children a positive play opportunity during
the lunchtime break. It encourages teams to plan together top ensure
