Help!' came the cry from a very experienced teacher attempting to resolve behavioural issues, conflicts and disputes between the young people with additional needs in the school, including those students diagnosed with ASD, 'We have tried everything!' The lament continued, We have used positive playground expectations, reminders and explicit social stories for some and still this happens! The young person had gone to this teacher on playground duty/supervision visibly upset. Having limited communication he was only able to point to a couple of other boys in the same class. The teacher comforted the young person and followed up with asking the person harmed to "Show me what happened.' He brought the teacher to the toilet area where he showed the teacher how his head was held down in the toilet bowl whilst it had been flushed. Separately the identified individuals responsible were sought out and invited also to 'Show me what happened and corroborate the story. The bell rang for the end of the break and there was no time or opportunity to follow up further. All parties were unsettled the rest of the afternoon. As a result the teacher, in consultation with the year/class coordinator, decided something else needed to be done as just saying the socially acceptable 'sorry' was not and would not be enough.
