A practical, readable resource for every teaching colleague.

It's over twenty years since the first edition was published and the new title reflects how times have changed. However, the content remains practical, easy to read and relevant to all professionals working in education. * SEN Magazine * PRAISE FOR GETTING THE BUGGERS TO BEHAVE The book is rich and realistic: rich in the array of strategies and examples that work, and realistic in that it is based on vivid examples of how youngsters misbehave....Cowley has some illuminating and always useful ideas. Her advice is practical, sound and interspersed with imaginative ideas that arrest attention. * Times Educational Supplement * PRAISE FOR GETTING THE BUGGERS TO BEHAVE ...[I] cannot speak with the classroom credibility of, for example, Sue Cowley, whose Getting the Buggers to Behave books are surely the benchmark in the practical handbook market. * The Times Educational Supplement * If you work in a school setting, no matter what role you do working with children, you need to read this book! * NetGalley Reviewer * Sue Cowley has come up with a number of methods to support different types of classes and different schools, as well as a multitude of different teachers, with behaviour strategies. * NetGalley Reviewer *More details
