Infos

Behaviour in the Classroom, The Practical Guide is for any teacher who wants to make their classroom environment a better one for children to learn in. Olivia Dear and Sarah Dear, drawing on their diverse experiences, break down the seemingly intuitive skills that effective teachers possess into manageable steps any teacher can learn. It transcends one-size-fits-all solutions, offering a nuanced approach to classroom management. The authors translate the complexities of behaviour research into practical examples. The six comprehensive steps, categorised into planning and teaching moments, empower teachers to establish a culture where desirable behaviour is the norm in their classroom. Beyond ‘know-that’, the book sets out to equip teachers with the ‘know-how’ to navigate diverse scenarios confidently.

Whether you’re a new or experienced teacher, this guide is avaluable companion for creating classroom environments in which every child can thrive.

Autor

Olivia and Sarah, both secondary school science teachers, have spent the last two years as Core Lecturers in School Behaviour and Culture at Academica University of Applied Sciences in Amsterdam. Their role involves synthesising academic literature on school behaviour, blending it with hands-on teaching experience, and distilling practical guidance to schools nationwide. They have designed a one-year change programme where they deliver training sessions and conduct school visits, aiming to enhance school culture and behaviour. Prior to Academica, Olivia and Sarah spent a combined total of 15 years in various leadership positions at the successful Michaela Community School in London, where Olivia was a founding member of staff. Olivia began teaching in a large inner-city secondary school where she picked up classroom management skills through trial and error. Sarah, on the other hand, began her teaching career at Michaela Community School, where she benefitted from a meticulously crafted training programme. Together, they possess a comprehensive understanding of current behavioural challenges and effective strategies applicable to teachers across various school types.
