Behaviour Intervention Plan (BIP)
A formal, individualized document outlining proactive and reactive strategies to address challenging behaviour.
A BIP acts as the clinical blueprint for managing and changing behaviour. Developed following a Functional Behaviour Assessment (FBA), it details:
- Operational definitions of target behaviours
- Hypothesized functions
- Antecedent strategies
- Replacement skills to teach
- Consequence strategies
A successful BIP reads clearly and gives actionable instructions. It serves as the primary daily guide for staff, parents, and teachers working directly with the learner.
