What is Verbal Behaviour?

• Verbal Behaviour is an approach that applies behavioural principles to language development.
• Teaching methodologies used are evidence based and developed from an initial text written by Skinner.
• Verbal Behaviour focusses on the reasons why we engage in different types of communication.
• It helps us identify areas of communication that our pupils find difficult and how to teach them most effectively.
• Verbal Behaviour doesn’t just have to be vocal communication.
• Individuals can engage in Verbal Behaviour in multiple modes using sign language, communication books, electronic devices etc.
• All of our teaching is delivered in the context of the Multi-Agency Support the individual receives.

We offer an exceptional CPD package for our staff and our ethos is ‘everyone a learner, everyone a leader’. We believe in growing our own leaders and are passionate about offering all motivated staff opportunities to develop their leadership skills; especially as there will be many professional opportunities as we expand.
