General configuration for behaviour

If you are configuring behaviour in PARS for the first time, then you will need to create Grounds and Outcomes. These are the equivalent of Types and Outcomes in SIMS.

When adding a behaviour incident, a ground is what the pupil has done, and the outcome is what the staff member is going to do about it.

The configure behaviour page covers the basic setup that you will need to do in order for staff to begin adding behaviour incidents.
