  1. Positive Behaviour Support Plans Effective design and development

  2. Objectives • What is Positive Behaviour Support? • How can plans be made effective ? • Why might plans fail or not be as effective as they could be? • What are effective formats for PBS plans? • My experiences of PBS planning. • How should plans be reviewed and maintained?

  3. What is Positive Behaviour Support? ‘Positive behavior support (PBS) is an applied science that uses educational and systems change methods (environmental redesign) to enhance quality of life and minimize problem behaviors’ Carr et al (2002)
