New Positive Behavioural Support Resources from the PBS Academy
2016 brings with it the publication of the new Positive Behavioural Support Resources, a new name for the PBS Coalition and a new website.
Since our last blog in September we have decided to informally establish the PBS Academy and have set up a website to disseminate the PBS Competence Framework and new resources www.pbsacademy.org.uk.
We are using our new logo so you will be able to recognise us easily.
We have also changed our twitter profile to @PBSacademyUK and have a new email address: pbsacademyuk@gmail.com
We have published our new resources
Our new resources to help implement the PBS Competence Framework have been published today and are available free from our website:
