Transforming Behaviour in the Classroom

Description

Being able to effectively manage the behaviour in your classroom is one of the basic foundations of good teaching. However creating a positive productive learning environment is challenging as the causes of behavioural issues can be complex and difficult to identify. 
 
This book presents a solution-focused approach to behaviour management in primary and secondary schools, starting with the child and offering a flexible methodology and practical strategies for facilitating long-term positive behaviour. 

Key coverage includes: An overview of main approaches to behaviour management drawing from educational theory and research; Case studies throughout the book exploring key strategies and issues; How to develop confidence in the classroom as a new teacher; Neuroscience and behaviour: what can we learn from recent scientific discoveries?
