Discipline and Child Management Policy

The discipline policy of Fun 2 Learn Preschool is one which encourages the development of self-control and the learning of appropriate social behaviors. By providing an environment which strengthens the sense of dignity and self worth of each child we attempt to develop an awareness and respect for and sensitivity to other children. Fun 2 Learn Preschool emphasizes a positive approach to behavior by modeling appropriate behavior and by providing a varied and stimulating developmentally appropriate program by careful program planning and preparation.


In the event that undesirable behavior does occur certain intervention strategies are used:

1) Establishing eye contact and speaking calmly to the child

2) Redirecting the child with an alternate toy and / or activity

3) Moving closer to the child, acknowledging his/her feelings and telling him/her exactly what you want.

4) In situations where a child is extremely upset, one of the two teachers present will take the child aside, calm him/her down (perhaps by reading a story) talk about the child’s feelings and then attempt to return the child to the group.
