Moving Away from Rewards and Punishments Part 1 with Heather Lucas

In this, the first of two episodes on rewards and punishments,
Toria talks to Heather Lucas about moving away from the
behaviouralist approach that schools have followed for years and
more towards an approach that focuses on building relationships.
Heather explains the three R's and really unpicks the importance
of emotional regulation.

If you would like to contact Heather or have specific questions
for her, she is very happy to have people email her on
bitesizedpsychology@gmail.com.
