What Schools Are Saying About Behaviour Smart

Thank you so much once again for your visit and time you invested in us. It was great to hear all of your new features and forward planning. So proud to be part of your journey. Massive well done to you, you’re smashing it!!

Kerry Butler - Deputy Head
Pictor Academy

Behaviour Smart has significantly reduced the time spent completing and analysing our physical intervention/incident forms (previously we used paper forms and manual analysis). We are an Independent Special School for children with SEMH needs, and it is vital that we can look at incidents objectively over time to improve how we support our extremely vulnerable pupils, whilst also not increasing workload for staff. Behaviour Smart has given us that in a very easy-to-use software package with excellent after-sales support.

I use Behaviour Smart to record and analyse behaviour of children with complex needs. It is a comprehensive recording tool which is also flexible in allowing you to configure it to reflect the specific needs and systems in place in your service. It tracks behaviours and uses the data inputted to produce comprehensive and personalised behaviour plans. I would highly recommend it. The support from Dean and his tech team is great too!!"

Behaviour Smart has the power to be transformative in terms of improving behaviour in schools. Not only does it provide plans for students but support and advice for colleagues in terms of best ways of working with young people. The support from Dean Cotton who developed the software is amazing - nothing is too much trouble and his expertise around whole school behaviour is superb. This is someone who walks the talk and knows from experience what it's like to work in challenging environments. Great product! Great support!

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Behaviour Smart Care replace our existing safeguarding system?

No. Behaviour Smart Care is designed to sit alongside your existing safeguarding procedures and systems, not replace them. It supports clearer behaviour and safeguarding recording and gives you a better overview of what is happening in your service.

Is Behaviour Smart Care suitable for more than one home or site?

Yes. Behaviour Smart can support single homes, small providers and larger organisations. We can configure views so managers and leaders see what is relevant to their role.

How does Behaviour Smart Care support trauma-informed practice?

Behaviour Smart Care encourages staff to record context, triggers, protective factors and outcomes, not just what happened. Post-incident learning prompts support reflective conversations and supervision rather than blame.

Can staff record incidents on mobile devices?

Yes. Staff can record on mobile, tablet or desktop, which reduces the need for long write-ups at the end of a shift.

What support do we get during implementation?

We provide onboarding support, training and guidance so staff feel confident using Behaviour Smart Care. During your demo we will discuss what this could look like for your service.
