Transferring the Notion of Good Practice when Working with Pupils with Emotional, Behavioural and Social Difficulties in a Cypriot Educational Context

Overview

Pupils with Social, Emotional and Behaviour Difficulties (often known as SEBD and EBD) comprise a group of learners who present challenges to their educators and the educational system; often, working with these pupils can be challenging and stressful for their teachers, as well as any professional involved. In England, research concerning the education and learning of pupils with SEBD has progressed considerably in the past three decades, and 'good practice' when working with pupils who present these difficulties has been widely investigated. In Cyprus, however, it is not nearly so widely known about and has not been researched to any great extent. This book explores the situation in the Cypriot education system, and begins by expanding the reader's knowledge on developments on the education of those pupils whose behaviour raises challenges to the educational system and causes concerns to those involved. The book is informed by research which was undertaken by the author in Cyprus, and documents the views of educators and professionals on good practice. It explores the microsystem of a school, and will enrich the knowledge and understanding of those with personal and professional interests in working with these pupils to be ready to accommodate their needs. The book also contributes to a better understanding of the nature of SEBD, especially since the number of students presenting such difficulties in Cypriot primary education requires practitioners to be ready to provide the best practices possible.

Author Information

Dr Stella Tryfonos, BA, Med, MPhil in Education, first came to the UK in 2004, when she started her studies and work at the same time. She completed her doctoral studies at the University of Birmingham, and has published articles and presented her work at several conferences. She is now a Post-doctoral Researcher and is working with pupils with Social, Emotional and Behaviour Difficulties. She worked as a teacher in Cyprus for five years, before moving to the UK where she continued to work for the Department of Education (CEM) of Cyprus High Commission in the UK (part of the Cypriot Ministry of Education), as a headteacher for a Greek Supplementary School in Birmingham. For the past ten years, her interest in the education of children, at primary age, who present SEBD in her native country of Cyprus, as well as her growing concern over practices, has been the inspiring force for her continuing study and research.
