Page 11 - What?! No Consequences?! A Neuroinclusive Approach to Follow-Up

SYSTEMATIC & PLANNED FOLLOW-UP

Follow up is not about the child getting ‘bigger and heavier consequences’ or in ‘more

serious trouble’. We know this just exacerbates difficulties and, more often than not, spirals

the child into higher levels of stress, weaker Executive Functioning and increased unhelpful

and dangerous responses.

Instead, our staged follow-up focuses on the child receiving

increasingly intensive and specialised support and regular

rehearsal of missing skills so that weaker skills and unmet

needs can be addressed even more robustly.
