For arts facilitators and teachers of students with special needs

Have you encountered a situation of sexual misconduct that left you unsure of what to do in the classroom?

Have you encountered sexually explicit or aggressive art articulations from young children with special needs? What, as artists, can we do?

Children of all ages, with or without special needs, engage normally in sexual play, usually with other children and often with very little harm or intrusiveness. However, some children with special needs may be sexually aggressive with others or sexually inappropriate in other ways (e.g., touching others or revealing themselves in public). This interactive workshop will look at how to do a functional analysis of such behaviour and also look at some aspects of the child’s behaviour and the environment around the child that may contribute to the origin and maintenance of such behaviour with a view to decreasing and managing such behaviour.
