loulou Report post Posted November 10, 2005 Hi Hev, Kai's school (EBD) uses "time-out" for discipline. They have a desk outside the classroom where they have to sit (not sure how long for). If they are violent they go to a "time out" room to calm down. It looks really scary, like a prison cell. Kai went in there once, but he liked it because he said it was nice and quiet. The room is hardly ever used, because the kids have firm boundaries and seem to behave pretty well. They also use a pionts system, where good behaviour and cooperation gains them points throughtout the day. At the end of the week, if they have 65/100 or more, they get to choose an "activity" for friday afternoon (ie football, cooking etc). I'm not sure about their policy for exclusion though.
