Overview

"As schools are making efforts to include children with emotional and behavioural problems teachers are having to deal with angry and violent pupils on a daily basis. In this book the author offers a recognizable, account of the widespread and serious problems affecting teachers and suggests practical strategies and solutions. It provides basic day-to-day guidance as well as help for the longer term PSHE planning for schools, based on the author's own adaptation of the successful ""Everyman"" project. Issues discussed include: a practical survey for teaches on the types of incidents they have to deal with that involve ""anger""; where anger comes from; types of anger; problems that anger causes for the individuals who have it; dealing with sudden and unexpected anger; and longer term strategies which can be used to help individual pupils deal with anger."

'At its heart, Mr Blum is a teacher with vast experience in some of our worst schools ... [His book] is a clear and useful set of proposals for how schools could try rewarding students, rather than punishing them, and try to avoid conflict rather than scaring students out of bad behaviour. - Joe Plomin, Guardian Unlimited 'The book is a lively and disturbing read. It is very honest, but offers some practical and imaginative strategies for the ordinary teacher.' - Martin Allen, The Teacher
