Benefits
The primary aims of this book are to:
- Present new ways of thinking about existing problems in order to devise new solutions
- Unpack some of the jargon associated with highly relevant educational, psychological and neurological theory into accessible language.
Summary of contents
Teach to Inspire Better Behaviour is aimed at mainstream schools seeking to take a fresh look at the possible causes for aggressive, disruptive and unpredictable behaviours and their impacts on social and emotional health. It provides both the theory and practice to cope with the ‘teenage toddler’, the young people we all face in our classrooms whose behaviour does not match their chronological age. The resource takes recent psychological and neurological theory and presents new ways of dealing with problem behaviours. It challenges the idea that ‘nurture’ is restricted to the early years and provides ways that adults can create a nurturing environment in which emotional wellbeing is recognised as essential for personal, social and emotional development throughout the school age group.
The resource consists of the following:
- Background theories to understand ‘nurturing and wiring’ and what happens when things go wrong
- Strategy chapters that provide a framework for helping children fill in the developmental gaps, so building healthier relationships and engaging with learning
- Information on how to provide for the rest of the class whilst also working alongside difficult children
- PowerPoint training materials with full facilitator notes as well as reflective tasks for staff training
The author focuses on the causes and impact of traumatic life events linked with different stages of neurological and psychological development, including separation, illness, bereavement, neglect, abuse and inadequate limit-setting in early childhood.
The key themes of the book are:
- The need for classrooms in which basic emotional needs are met, in which all participants, adults and children, feel safe, self-motivated and free to focus on building healthy relationships and on teaching and learning
- Acknowledgement of a significant and growing minority of children for whom traditional behaviour management strategies are not working
- Scientific research into the psychological effects on the brain (and consequently on behaviour) of early developmental problems and childhood loss, trauma, abuse or illness
- Consideration of the impact of disruptive behaviours on the needs of peers
- The need for improved self-care among those working within schools
- The delivery of tried-and-tested strategies at an accessible level, underpinned by attachment theory, into the hands of classroom practitioners who encounter both occasional extremes of behaviour and the on-going pressure of low-grade disruption
