Day-to-day data recording
Threshold-triggered response
Cross-cutting communication
Behaviour incident occurs
Minor behaviour incident
Quick Incident Log
Critical incident (ABCH)
C.I. Bot preferred, or Word template
Both paths also require Historical Entry into Behaviour Analysis.
Communication log
Record contact whenever parent/carer or agency is contacted
Threshold-triggered responses
Triggered by a pattern building up across incidents over time — not a direct next step off one single incident.
Sensory profile
Sensory-linked patterns
Safety and risk plan
Escalating risk behaviour
Sensory profile — indicators
- Same sensory trigger recurring across incident reports (noise, crowding, touch, texture, lighting, transitions)
- Repeated seeking or avoidance behaviour noted across several incidents, not a one-off
- New enrolment or transition with no sensory profile on file yet
- Behaviour Analysis data suggests an environmental/sensory correlation rather than social demand or task avoidance
Safety and risk plan — indicators
- A critical incident involving risk to the student or others (absconding/elopement, physical aggression, self-harm, property destruction with safety implications)
- Frequency escalation — two or more CIs for the same student within a term (confirm exact threshold)
- A recurring high-risk behaviour type across multiple reports, even where no single incident was severe alone
- Manager/TC review of a CI explicitly flags ongoing risk requiring a proactive plan
Ongoing data collection tools
Used continuously to build the pattern picture, independent of whether a CI has occurred.
Scatter plot tracker
Weekly pattern baseline
Interval tracker
Structured interval data
Scatter plot tracker — when to use
- Establishing whether a behaviour has a time/day pattern, before committing to anything more structured
- One target behaviour, light-touch, paper-style weekly recording
Interval tracker — when to use
- A support plan is already in place and structured, more granular sampling is needed (Quick or Grid mode)
- Recording prevention "saves" — evidence a strategy is working, not just when it fails
Communication log — always relevant
Every time a parent/carer is contacted about a CI (a separate, mandatory step from the ABCH report's own notification field).
Any other contact with a parent/carer or external agency relevant to the student's behaviour, safety or wellbeing — not gated behind an incident.

Assumptions used in this version: CI frequency threshold for the Safety and Risk Plan shown as "two or more in a term" — confirm and adjust if a different figure applies. Communication Log, Safety and Risk Plan Builder, and Scatter Plot/Interval Tracker links are placeholders pending confirmed portal URLs.
