Being able to effectively manage the behaviour in your classroom is one of the basic foundations of good teaching. However creating a positive productive learning environment is challenging as the causes of behavioural issues can be complex and difficult to identify.

This book presents a solution-focused approach to behaviour management in primary and secondary schools, starting with the child and offering a flexible methodology and practical strategies for facilitating long-term positive behaviour.

Key coverage includes:

* An overview of main approaches to behaviour management drawing from educational theory and research

* Case studies throughout the book exploring key strategies and issues

* How to develop confidence in the classroom as a new teacher

* Neuroscience and behaviour: what can we learn from recent scientific discoveries?

Industry Reviews

Geoffrey James' book Transforming Behaviour in the Classroom provides a really sensible, evidenced based approach to getting the conditions for learning right. It's the kind of book I wished I'd had on my PGCE and in my NQT year - practical strategies to prepare, plan and teach for good behaviour in your classroom, backed up by real examples. -- Chris Hildrew This book provides an interesting and thought provoking approach to behaviour management and would be a very useful part of any behaviour toolkit or range of approaches for teachers new and old to try. -- Christine Smith This is an important book for all those concerned with improving our schools. It is practical and positive and develops a new professional pathway to the solutions that all schools must find in their everyday life. Highly recommended. -- Professor Ivor Goodson
