In Bill's Words

In every class there are hundreds of incidences of what we might call challenging behaviour. Effective teaching to relate to pupils. Often, it is not those you confront which make the difference but those you ignore.

Tactical Ignoring

We've all been there. The class is finally quiet, you've started your lesson, and in walks Connor - late as always. How do you address arrogant lateness to minimise its impact and remove it from your classroom? 

Effective behaviour management does not start or finish in individual lessons, with individual students. Supporting your colleagues is an extremely effective way of making sure small issues don't become major problems.

Arrogant Lateness

Colleague Support

The first challenge in every class comes at the very beginning - getting the students settled so that learning can begin.

 

Ensuring a Settled & Focused Class

Dealing with Distractions

The first job of a teacher is to educate. Just as important is safeguarding - every lesson we teach must bear this in mind. Effective leadership ensures an efficient learning community.

Students who refuse to follow instructions are among the most challenging disruptions you face in your classroom. Embrace the challenge - retain classroom control and overcome the issues.
