3. Identifying Need

 

While most pupils will thrive with consistent, whole-school strategies, some will require additional support at certain points in their school journey. Identifying need is about noticing early signs that a pupil may be struggling and understanding the factors that might be contributing to their behaviour. This stage helps staff decide whether targeted approaches within school are appropriate, or whether more specialist input may be required.
