Detailed Definition of Behavioral Planning

Establishing an individualized set of strategies in order to effectively anticipate, prevent, and respond to problematic behaviors.

Students whose behavioral difficulties occur because of a disability (for example, a student with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder who doesn’t stay seated or jumps out of line) may be placed on a behavioral plan. A specialized team determines specific strategies for addressing the student’s behaviors that interfere with the learning environment.
