Getting the Buggers to Behave by Sue Cowley
Includes material for early years and further education (FE) practitioners, and those working in the toughest schools. This series provides teaching practitioners with a wealth of practical advice for use in a variety of educational settings.
"'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 Education Supplement 'If I was head of a school always (unfortunately) discussing behaviour, I would buy a copy for all the staff (including support staff), arrange an Inset day and review the whole-school policies and practices to enable all teachers to observe each other's practice in a focused way.' Tim Brighouse, formerly Chief Education Officer for Birmingham and Commissioner for London Schools 'Children are not the enemy - they are children - even the 18-year-olds, and this book offers much sound advice to keep you sane and happy through your teaching career.' Amazon reviewer '...the benchmark in the practical handbook 'It's been over a decade since I sat down in a small back bedroom in Somerset and wrote this book. Since then, I've been fortunate enough to work with literally thousands of people in the world of education. Through all these experiences, I've picked up loads more great ideas about how to manage behaviour. I've also gained an insight into what works in different settings, with different young people, and for different kinds of staff. The basic tenets of this book remain faithful to the original. What I've done though is adapt and develop the ideas so that they apply to more practitioners, in more diverse situations: to those working in early years and further education, as well as primary and secondary schools. And for those of you working in the most challenging schools or colleges, I've included a new section on coping in really difficult circumstances. I've also taken advantage of new developments in the world of technology. So, there's a companion website offering you extra material, links and ideas.' Sue Cowley"
