This assignment analyzes various academic studies on educational interventions aimed at enhancing different skill sets in students. It delves into the impact of digital mobile-based interventions on critical thinking, research abilities, and positive learning environments. The papers also examine the role of universal classroom management training programs, evidence-based parenting practices, and the influence of personal values on student behavior. Additionally, it investigates the effectiveness of web-based competitions in promoting physical activity.

INTRODUCTION
In each organisation, it is fundamental for an employee to maintain positive behaviour so
that entire work will get done in a systematic manner. For this, many kinds of strategies and
policies will be formulated by the manager (Prestwich and et. al., 2017). Present assignment is
based on NHS which is a health care association and established in the UK. They are providing
their services across the world. This project is going to highlight many kinds of laws or acts
which will be applied by the superior in working environment. Utilization of proactive and
reactive strategies to promote the positive behaviour at workplace will be highlighted. Further,
the behaviour of persons and the way they face any type of circumstances will be studied along
with highlighting many types of challenging behaviour.
TASK 1
P1. Legislation in relation to restrictive interventions in health and social care
Covered in Poster
P2. Interventions that may be used to promote positive behaviour in HSC
Main aim of using FBA is to understand the behaviour of person appropriately so that if
any kind of situation arise then it will be maintained. To comprehend each thing properly,
problem needs to be interpreted (Hickey and et. al., 2017). Henceforth, it has been examined that
some elements will influence the individual's behaviour such as slow and fast trigger. Slow
trigger will take some time, whereas, fast trigger reacts immediately (Functional assessment,
2018). Behaviour of people will be measured or observed. If person's behaviour is negative in
nature then, manager has to prepare some strategies like they will provide them some sessions as
this will help them to develop an effective communication with each other (Street, 2017).
INTERVENTION PLAN
TARGETED BEHAVIOUR DEFINED (Behaviour which need to be reduced):
 Aggressive behaviour
 Self-injury
REPLACEMENT BEHAVIOUR DEFINED (Behaviour which need to be enhanced):
 Innovative thinking
 Productive nature
1

Measurable goals:
 Respectful language
 Positive comments
Baseline data:
 Ascending
 Variable
FUNCTIONAL BEHAVIORAL ASSESSMENT / RATIONAL FOR PLAN:
Functional behaviour assessment is considered like a procedure which is formulated to
determine the reason behind individual's behaviour. With the help of this, issues of persons will
get resolved through collecting sufficient information. For the above stated aim, strategies as
well as tool will get developed.
COMMON TRIGGERS
Triggers: Slow trigger will take some time, whereas fast trigger reacts immediately.
PROACTIVE STRATEGIES/ BASIC IDEA FOR PREVENTION
Determine and solve issues before their occurrence. This is very much helpful for an
organisation as they will do their task within certain time frame.
REACTIVE STRATEGIES/ SPECIFIC INTERVENTION
Sorting out problems after they occurred and to reduce it, manager will formulate some
strategies or policies.
P3. Process of implementing least restrictive interventions
Least restrictive option is basically used to assist individuals under the Mental Capacity
act. If an individual is doing something then this will restrict the freedom of person either
directly or indirectly (Burford, Lucassen and Hamilton, 2017). It doesn't mean that individual
cannot do anything. Whereas, the reason behind this is that they want to secure them from any
kind of mis-happening. Along with that, many types of plans or strategies will be developed by
the manager to protect individuals from any harmful activities.
Other than this, investigation for least restrictive manner is to fulfil the requirement of all
service users as well as staff members timely. They will render them some creative solutions to
keep people secured. But it is essential to respect the right of every person so that they will do
their work effectually (Sanders and et. al., 2017).

P4. Safeguard is essential if restrictive physical interventions are using
It is required for the manager of NHS to protect their staff members in an appropriate
manner. For the above stated aim, they will develop some kinds of policies, strategies as well as
laws which they need to follow properly. It is important for the manager to restrict physical
intervention in the working environment. Otherwise, people will not able to complete their work
(Asiri, Millard and Weal, 2017). Sometimes, superior pressurises the workers to work at a fast
pace and due to hurry, work will get mismanaged. Therefore, they need to provide training to
employees so that they will manage their work activities in any kind of situation.
To secure them, superior of NHS applied Health and Safety act at workplace. They
described about the security policy of company to workers timely as this will assist them in their
retention for maximum period of time. Henceforth, by using safeguard policy, they will secure
employees from harmful actions (Littlefield and et. al., 2017).
TASK 2
P5. Difference between proactive and reactive strategies
Covered in Poster
P6. Importance of maintaining person or child centred approach when establishing proactive
strategies
Covered in Hand-outs
TASK 3
P7. Best practices in promoting positive behaviour
Covered in Leaflet
P8. Types of challenging behaviours
Covered in Poster
P9. Steps to be taken to maintain dignity and respect of an individual when responding to an
incident of challenging behaviour
In NHS, there was an employee who is much aggressive. Therefore, there are certain
steps which will be taken by the manager so that they will maintain dignity and respect of that
individual when they respond to an incident of challenging behaviour (Javed and et. al., 2017):
3

 It is required to talk with them with respect as well as dignity.
 Never shout on any staff or person
 Talk in firm tone and calmly
 Superior will ask to people to maintain cooperation.
Instead of this, they need to identify those reasons which will put a direct impact on the
behaviour of an individual. Therefore, they will develop strategies in an appropriate way. This
will help to protect the feelings of persons. Along with that, it is essential for the manager to
listen persons what they want to say as this will help to maintain an appropriate environment at
workplace (Paciello and et. al., 2017).
P10 Steps to be taken to check well-being of an individual following an incident of challenging
behaviour
It is must for those associations who are working as a health and social care firm to cater
effective sort of services to people. This enables them to ensure about well being of individual.
To improve working efficiency manager will provide training to their staff members. Therefore,
they will easily face any kind of challenges in an effective as well as efficient manner.
Each and everything need to be done by service provider because they help people to
overcome from any unusual behaviour; as a result, they will easily promote positive behaviour at
workplace. Henceforth, it is required to consider each element for welfare of sufferer party.
CONCLUSION
From the above assignment, it can be concluded that it is required for manager to
implement laws or policies at workplace so that they will secure employees from any harmful
activities. They will provide training to the staff members and therefore, they will be able to face
any kind of situation properly. It is essential to describe the best practice at workplace to promote
positive behaviour. Rather than this, there is description about some steps which will be taken
after by the superior to resolve challenging behaviour.
