Sian Ellis, teacher in charge, and Carole Blake, support teacher, Tower Hamlets School Support Team, describe their five‐point procedure for reducing the disruptive behaviour of a six‐year‐old boy in a London primary school. The Tower Hamlets School Support Team, set up in 1979 as part of the Inner London Education Authority's response to disruptive behaviour, consists of 12 teachers, a teacher in charge, an educational psychologist, a senior education welfare officer and a clerical officer. The team uses a theoretical analysis and model of work based on those developed by David Lane and his colleagues at the Islington Educational Guidance Centre.
