Good behaviour sets the foundation for effective learning. Every child deserves a classroom that’s a sanctuary of calm, safety, and respect. Establishing such a space is a crucial skill any educator must possess. Yet, many teachers commence their careers with very limited training, or worse, none. The social and academic behaviour of students is a pivotal factor that determines their success or struggles in school. Each child brings a unique set of skills, habits, values, and expectations to the classroom. Merely instructing a child to behave isn’t enough; behaviour is something to be taught. It’s a curriculum in itself. This fundamental truth is the first step towards cultivating a classroom environment where everyone thrives – both students and staff.
Running the Room is an essential guide for teachers on managing behaviour. It’s a practical, evidence-based handbook drawing on the expertise of exceptional teachers worldwide, addressing the real-world needs for creating the ideal classroom environment. Chock-full of strategies, tips, and invaluable advice, it consolidates the best knowledge available and saves teachers, whether novices or veterans, from having to reinvent the classroom wheel. It’s the book educators have been eagerly awaiting.
