? A new 'How would you deal with this situation?' feature exploring tricky scenarios

Reviews / Votes
The strength of this second edition lies in the even wider lens through which behaviour is explored - no element of school life is left undiscussed. Jarlath continually forces you to reflect and consider your actions, the actions of students and the wider actions of the school community. This is a much-needed update to the literature on behaviour and a book that will be invaluable to all, regardless of experience or role. -- Kate Stockings Jarlath's expert knowledge and depth of experience has produced a book that will support every teacher to become "the decisive element in the classroom". His deeply held belief in the value of every child and young person shines through as he coherently argues for the holistic development of all: socially, emotionally and behaviourally in support of the academic. Complete with summaries, reflection points, scenarios and further reading this is more than a book. It is an in-depth manual for teachers and senior leaders who want to get behaviour right, in schools, and believe we are there to catch our pupils, "not catch them out". -- Stephen TierneyMore details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
