Full Description
From the bestselling author of "Miss, I don't give a sh*t", this book offers school and college leaders a blueprint for developing a joined-up and intelligent whole school approach to behaviour. It is built around developing an inclusive culture and how this can positively address behaviour and social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs.
It looks at the different components of an inclusive behaviour culture, from the perspective of education leaders, school staff, families and carers to inform the most important perspective of all: what is it like to be a student at your school?
Challenging disempowering false assumptions that too easily lead to misguided practice, it explores the strategic vision and pragmatic application that can improve behaviour outcomes for all. From embracing accountability, to making new systems work and getting staff on board, this offers insightful and thought-provoking guidance to benefit everyone at your school, college or multi-academy trust.
