The Win-Win Discipline Blueprint is about instilling self-discipline and the ability to self-manage behaviour and regulate emotions.

Win-Win Discipline:

A Blueprint to Positive Behaviour Solutions

Workshop Highlights

  • Enhance your confidence in effectively managing a wide range of disruptive behaviours that arise in the classroom.

  • Gain a deeper understanding of why your students misbehave and develop effective strategies for addressing such behaviour.

  • Cultivate a classroom environment that promotes responsible behaviour and facilitates optimal learning outcomes for all students.

  • Navigate confrontations, rule-breaking, aggression, withdrawal, and clowning with a suite of professional and appropriate techniques.

  • Transform disruptive behaviour into constructive learning opportunities by harnessing the energy of your more exuberant students.

  • Improve your classroom management approach by adopting preventative discipline strategies that proactively address issues before they occur.

  • Foster a safe and inclusive learning environment that is centred on knowledge acquisition and not simply on discipline. Join us for this professional development opportunity and gain the necessary tools and knowledge to create an effective, engaging classroom culture.

The Win-Win Discipline blueprint aligns seamlessly with our curriculum's emphasis on hauora, providing a systematic approach to transforming behavioural challenges into win-win opportunities. Understanding the seven positions - including attention-seeking, avoiding failure, expressing anger, being hopeless, defying authority, seeking power, and aggressive retaliation - gives us valuable insights into creating positive learning outcomes for all.

Rather than traditional one-size-fits-all approaches, this win-win methodology offers three powerful tiers of response:

* Prevention strategies that build strong classroom communities and address underlying student needs

* In-the-Moment solutions that maintain everyone's mana while redirecting each type of position

* Follow-Up approaches that transform each behavioural position into an opportunity for growth

When we understand what students really need - whether it's connection, competence, or control - we can craft solutions that benefit everyone in the learning community.

By implementing strategies tailored to each position, we create inclusive environments where both teachers and students succeed together. Every challenge becomes a stepping stone to mutual understanding, every student feels valued for their unique needs, and teachers can focus on what truly matters - nurturing growth and learning.
