Abstract

This DataShare item relates to a qualitative study funded by the Spencer Foundation, titled ‘Disrupting Understandings of Disruptive Behaviour’. The study sought to investigate the school experiences of pupils who had been receiving support at school before COVID-19 to help them manage their behaviour in school. The aim was to investigate whether, as the literature below would predict, some aspects of education under lockdown were experienced positively by pupils with a history of disruptive behaviour (PHDB), and to work with families and schools in Scotland to identify ways in which these positive aspects may be replicated in the post COVID classroom.
