Purpose School-wide positive behaviour support (SWPBS) is a proactive behavioural support system that fosters behaviour change in individuals in a school setting. This article aims to present a case example of teaching and reinforcing behavioural expectations in a special school. Design/methodology/approach This case study reflects different steps and materials used before and during the intervention in a special education school with 61 secondary students with intellectual disabilities. An AB design (A – baseline; B – intervention) was used to collect and analyze data. Findings Results suggest that teaching behavioural expectations as a universal measure may be feasible and positively impact school climate. Suggestions and recommendations for implementing SWPBS within a school are provided. Originality/value This case study provides a step-by-step guide illustrating the process of teaching and reinforcing behavioural playground expectations to young adults with intellectual disabilities attending a special school.

    This research examined the impact of hemispheric-teaching strategy on individuals with intellectual disability. The author argues that if one of the two hemispheres is more dysfunctional by presenting poorer attributed functions than the other due to abnormal brain development and one is more functional than the other, processing and analyzing inputs and information would be manifested in the superior hemisphere thus teaching those individuals by which it meets their dominant hemisphere will increase their performance. A sample of two students with Intellectual Disabilities and CHARGE Syndrome underwent right and left-hemispheric teaching strategies and were assessed before and after the intervention to examine the argument. Both participants exhibited improvement in their performance on the assigned task, but more improvement was exhibited from the participant who underwent the left-hemispheric teaching strategy.   ، ، ، ، ،
