If primary disabilities are not accommodated by a “good fit”, other (ie secondary) behaviours and feelings result.  These are often the behaviours we see in class (anger, shutdown etc).  This module uses video clips from Whitecrow staff and the analogy of learning to cross-country ski to exemplify “poor fit” and “good fit”

If we make a “good fit” for the primary disabilities, secondary behaviours can be prevented.
