Reviews

Pippa Whittaker - Curriculum Leader for Inclusion

I think books about behaviour will always sell well as so many teachers are so desperate for support in this area! However, I think that what will make this book a really good seller and an enduring title, will be a real clarity of purpose and content from the outset.

Alex Lawrence

The book would be of use within all school settings for a large range of staff. It would be useful to support less experienced teachers or those experiencing difficulties with behaviour within the classroom.

The book is very practical for a range of busy professionals to be able to dip in and extract relevant information efficiently.
