Understanding and managing children’s behaviour.
This essay aims to explore the behaviour of an individual child. It will briefly introduce the child and their background; it will then examine the behaviour that is being exhibited and look into the possible reasons behind it.

It could be argued that a child’s education is one long social interaction. Pupils are interacting with adults and peers on a daily basis, listening to instructions and sharing ideas. Paul’s inability or unwillingness to interact with adults and peers in an appropriate manner could be forming a barrier to his learning and in turn could be a large contributor to Paul’s inappropriate behaviour. Many established writers including Fox (2001), Moyles (2005) and Riddall-Leech (2003) propose that the ability or inability to interact has a major influence upon a child’s learning and
