My 4.5 year old is struggling with his behaviour at school, the teacher has spoke to me on a few occasions since he has started about his listening/doing as he's told, also doesn't seem that phased when he is told off (he is like this at home a lot of the time). On top of this, he is quite boisterous and can be quite physical, the teacher said today he kicked someone in the face whilst a group of them were playing chase, I am mortified to say the least.
I just don't know where to go from here, obviously I am constantly reminding him right from wrong, I give him consequences at home for any bad behaviour, I am especially concerned about his lacking of listening or doing as he's told and the "not being bothered" when he's being told off. I'm constantly reminding him about authority.
I just don't know where to go from here, I'm now considering asking school about a behaviour counsellor or something along those lines? I just don't know how to nip this in the bud.

Hi do you have any advice on how you dealt with behavioural challenges? I’ve been pulled over by the teacher twice now, my son is 4 and an august born. We are having the same challenges at home too. Thanks
