Framework for Intervention
Encyclopedia
The Framework for Intervention is a preventative approach to meet concerns about behaviour in school
s and nurseries. It concentrates on helping staff to change the school environment rather than the child. This means that all the factors that might affect the student or child's behaviour in the classroom or around the school can be analysed. To change the environment it offers teachers and other school staff a structure for planning,carrying out and evaluating their ideas.
Evaluation has shown that changing something in the environment for the better almost always improves the behaviour of the child, and also the behaviour of others in the class.
It was introduced by Birmingham

where it is known as 'Fin Stil' (Fine Style), it was due to be extended nationwide from 2009.
