UK Edition: Functional Behaviour Assessment Interview and ABC Pack, SEND, KS4 and Post-16

A practical pack for understanding the reason behind a behaviour. A structured interview for staff and parents covers what the behaviour looks like, when it happens, what comes before and after, and what has been tried. Two styles of ABC recording sheet make observation quick.

A summary page brings the evidence together into a working hypothesis about the function, such as escape, attention, sensory or getting something. A plan starter links that to prevention, teaching and response. Not a clinical assessment. 4 A4 pages.
