Protective Behaviours is a practical resource that has evolved from the tried and tested ideas and experience of a group of teachers. The book contains whole-lesson plans and lists of activity suggestions which can be adapted to suit children's ages and needs, and are intended as a reference for using the Protective Behaviours process.

It will help children to:

· Make safer choices

· Stand up to bullying behaviours

· Deal with transition and change

· Cope with divorce, loss and separation

· Develop a vocabulary of feelings.

The activities are linked to different themes and coded to suggest suitable age groups and group sizes. The book includes a brief explanation of the Protective Behaviours process.
