Although this role is new, the model has been extensively rolled out in several US states over a number of years, providing us with rich research and resources on which to learn and grow.
The Teaching Pyramid is a model for supporting social and emotional competence and preventing challenging behaviours in young children. This four tiered framework complements and supports National Quality Framework and Early Years Learning Framework, and provides an excellent model for self-reflection with a view to enhancing inclusive practice. The major principles focus on promotion, prevention and intervention. The model is well researched and evidence shows that it has dramatically improved inclusive practices, significantly reduced challenging behaviours and increased child development outcomes.
