Where to from here?ReviewsTeachers are encouraged to question how schools and classrooms are structured and they are given the tools they need to convince senior staff of the need for change, if needed [...] This is a must-read for all practising and training teachers who wish to understand the reasons for challenging behaviour and how to improve it. - Sarah Brew, Parents in Touch Teachers are encouraged to question how schools and classrooms are structured and they are given the tools they need to convince senior staff of the need for change, if needed [...] This is a must-read for all practising and training teachers who wish to understand the reasons for challenging behaviour and how to improve it. - Sarah Brew, Parents in Touch Dr Keren Wicks, Education Consultant (retired special school principal) Australia. The particular advantage of the new book is that Tim writes from the perspective of a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist who is also a teacher. It is also clearly set out, readable and short! Teachers do not have the time or the inclination to 'wade' through long tomes! Tim understands the complexities of classroom teaching and the diverse needs of the student cohort in schools today. He provides simple effective techniques for teachers to identify and manage challenging behaviours in their classroom and all that this entails. The book is informative, readable, practical and short - written in language that teachers use. The book provides information about causes of behaviour and promotes a positive model for teachers to understand why students behave as they do and strategies to change these behaviours - a model that will ultimately benefit all students. It is a 'usable' reference for teachers. The Case Studies are timely and relevant to classroom teachers. Mark Le Messurier, Education and Behavioural Consultant and author of What's the Buzz? And Teaching Tough Kids (Routledge) Yes. I think its content is of good quality, relevant and easily accessible for readers. I can see sales ticking over quite well. Tim Dansie is also a seasoned conference presenter with a personable style, so if this side of Tim's talent was exploited by Routledge I could see real sales increases.
