Rule Breaking
We expect young people to work towards developing self-control and to learn to express themselves in appropriate ways. We work hard with the young people to find positive solutions to challenging and difficult behaviour.This approach includes appropriate use of reward programmes and positive reinforcement.
To keep the Unit a safe place we have to take rules about dangerous behaviour very seriously. Disregarding rules will always produce a response from staff. Young people who break the rules are expected to take up the offer made by staff to talk about their behaviour. Persistent disregard of rules will lead to sanctions being imposed.
