About this event
This Child Behaviour online class offers a detailed exploration into how children grow, connect and respond to emotional experiences. The course opens with key psychological concepts and examines early attachment, relationship building, and effects of separation or loss on behavioural patterns. Factors such as environment, trauma, and individual traits are considered in shaping how children interact and develop.
The curriculum progresses into behavioural issues linked with mental health, including challenges associated with neurodiverse conditions such as autism, ADHD and dyslexia. Learners are introduced to approaches for addressing self-harming behaviour and treatment methods. The final modules present how mental health evolves over time, grounding the material in UK perspectives and legislation.

Child Behaviour— Online Class Descriptions:
Child Behaviour and youth mental health are increasingly critical in educational and social settings.

Schools, community centres, and health organisations are prioritising early intervention and behaviour analysis.

Through modules on attachment, autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and mental health treatment, students gain a foundational understanding of how emotional and behavioural concerns manifest and evolve.

Frequently asked questions
Typical child behaviors include curiosity, emotional outbursts, testing boundaries, and seeking attention. These vary by age but often reflect developmental milestones like independence, social play, and learning rules.
Child behaviour refers to how children act, react, and express themselves in response to their environment. It’s shaped by their development, temperament, and experiences.
Use consistent routines, clear expectations, and positive reinforcement. Stay calm during outbursts and guide children toward better choices through empathy and structured consequences.
Seven-year-olds often show increased independence, emotional swings, and a desire to assert control. They may lie, defy rules, or seek affection publicly while still needing guidance and reassurance.
Eight-year-olds are social, curious, and eager to please peers. They may show impatience, dramatic emotions, and a growing sense of empathy and independence.
Five common challenging behaviours include aggression (hitting or biting), defiance, self-harm, verbal outbursts, and disruptive actions like tantrums or refusal to follow instructions.
