Synopsis:

Improve the overall performance of your school with no-nonsense advice to allow you the confidence to implement successful behavioral management structures within the school environment. Drawing on his years of experience, Jeremy Rowe shares the most effective methods of classroom management, enabling teachers to ensure that pupils receive the best education.

Sorting Out Behavior is the view from the head teacher’s chair when it comes to getting behaviour right across the whole school.

If you want to get the public, the papers and politicians hot under the collar you only need mention ‘classroom behaviour’. It’s a subject everyone has an opinion on – and it’s rarely positive. For every media-fuelled horror story of disruptive behaviour there is a knee-jerk, sack the teachers, blame the parents, get the troops in response which often makes things worse when it comes to actually engaging children in learning. This book is not only about effective behaviour strategies that genuinely work but it is also special as it has been written by a practising head teacher, drawing on that unique perspective of whole school behaviour. Full of helpful, practical, do-able tips and ideas it is relevant for any teacher, manager or leader in all sorts of schools.

“I strongly recommend this extremely useful and practical guide, which demonstrates that effective behaviour management is about clarity, transparency, consistency and a set of manageable policies and procedures which are kept under constant review. Drawing on the author’s vast, first-hand experience, it is a source of common sense and practical pointers which would enable all school staff from trainees to experienced school leaders to review their behaviour policies, practices and procedures.”
Brian Lightman, General Secretary, Association of School and College Leaders

“Thank you to Jeremy Rowe for providing a plain English, common sense, easy to read guide about behaviour. Perhaps more importantly, he reminds us that children aren’t criminals and that most schools are calm, productive, orderly places that are far removed from the image so often portrayed in the media. We need to hear that message more often.”
Fiona Millar, Guardian Columnist
