Challenging behaviour of children and adolescents in everyday school life is often a sign of the difficult life situations in which they grow up. For teachers and educational professionals, dealing with the resulting conflicts is the biggest challenge. This book presents approaches and solutions for understanding and acting in difficult educational situations at school. In addition, an inclusive support approach offers impulses for school development to prevent challenging behaviour.
