Quick guide to recording behaviour events in GO 4 Schools
|  | For quick access to your timetable, markbook and group data, you should ensure you have linked your account. To do this you click on **Go 4 Schools \> settings**, then find your name in the **link your account to a teacher** section. Click on your name and it will highlight blue, then click on **Choose teacher**. |
| --- | --- |
|  | This will then link your timetable to your GO 4 Schools account and you will see your name appear in the menu on the left-hand side. When you click on your name your timetable and class information will be displayed. |
|  | Group behaviour events selected by your school can be recorded for any class or registration group by clicking on this icon . You will see this icon displayed for each group on your timetable. |
|  | When you record group behaviour events, you can simply select the check box next to a single student or the box on the top row to select all students (shown in the red box). Remember that all school or home notes you enter in the notes section will be applied to all students selected on this screen. Once you have selected the students and added any notes, remember to save you choices. You can access the ‘record group behaviour’ page for any class/registration group from the link at the top of the group’s markbook or attendance register. |
|  | Single behaviour events can be recorded by clicking on the **Add new event** link from the behaviour tracking menu on the left-hand side of the screen. You can also find the **record behaviour** link from a markbook, subject/group or student page. |
|  | Click on **choose** and select the type of behaviour event you want to record from the drop-down menu. Certain immediate and follow up actions may also appear when you select the type of behaviour. These may be immediate actions that you need to follow during the lesson. |
|  | Click on the **My timetable** button and select the group the student(s) are in from your timetable. This will then automatically complete the date, time, class code and room. If you are recording a corridor/lunchtime event not linked to a timetabled lesson, you can type in the location before selecting the type of behaviour and student(s) involved. |
|  | Click **Add students** and then click the names of the students from the menu list that is displayed. If you have selected a group from your timetable, the class list will display automatically. You can also browse year groups or search for a student by name, using the tabs at the top of the menu list. Once you have selected all the students involved, click **ok**. |
|  | You can also choose to add other members of staff if they were present, to avoid duplicate logging, or notify members of staff by sharing the event. *Only use these options as directed by your school procedures.* Mandatory immediate actions will need to be marked as complete before you will be able to save the event. You can edit the event again later to mark any 'follow up actions' as complete or select additional 'optional' follow up actions. |
|  | Now type the details of the incident in the school and/or home notes section following your school guidance. You can then save the event and the incident will be recorded and logged on the student’s record in GO 4 Schools. |
|     | You should always check for ‘active events’ that require additional attention or to be marked as ‘closed’. If further action is required, you will be notified by the  symbol next to the behaviour tracking menu link and then again on the active event list page for each event that requires further action. Click **My active events** from the behaviour tracking menu. You will see the number of active events displayed in brackets next to the link. You can now click **edit** to update, close or cancel the event. Clicking the **More** link will display the type of action applied. To view managed detention information, click **show managed detention details**. The managed detention status will then be displayed as ‘unallocated’ or ‘allocated’. ***Managed detention follow up actions do not require you to close the event or complete the action. The detention will be marked as complete once the student has attended and completed the allocated detention.*** |
|  | You can now mark any required follow up actions as complete, update the school or home notes section as required by your school guidance. You must then click **mark this event as closed** or **cancelled** and save to finish recording the event. *Cancelled events are still listed on the student’s page to school staff, but not displayed on the student/parent site.* |
