About the Book

The behaviour of students is a common concern and challenge for those working in secondary schools. In addition there is continued government emphasis on behaviour as an important educational issue. This book, aimed at all secondary trainees and teachers, takes a fresh approach to the topic and looks at how an understanding of behaviour types and new findings on the development of the brain can increase emotional intelligence, improve classroom behaviour, promote stress-free teaching and so enhance learning in the secondary school. This accessible text combines both theory and practice, encourages reflection throughout, and offers a wealth of ideas and resources to help teachers develop their skills in this area.

Table of Contents:
Introduction Where are we now and how have we got here in respect to young people and their behaviour How to talk to young people Understanding self The emotionally intelligent classroom Emotionally intelligent relationships Changing behaviour Support staff and SEN Developing your own leadership style Conclusion References Index

About the Author :
Victor Allen is a freelance educational consultant who focuses on behaviour and leadership issues, advising on improving all aspects of emotional intelligence with both students and staff. Previously, he had a successful career within the business sector developing teams and leaders, and was an advisor for youth authorities working with persistent young offenders. He is involved in training teachers at the University of Northampton, mentoring Newly Qualified Teachers in a variety of schools and runs European training events on leadership, emotional intelligence and special needs within mainstream schools. He is a regular contributor to tespro (TES) on behaviour issues and in his spare time works with a semi-professional football team helping with the emotional aspects of the game.

Review :
Thank you for sending me a copy of this most excellent text which I have recommended to Secondary PGCE students at BGU. I consider the text to be a useful guide to developing a sound understaninf of behaviour for learning. I have also added the book to reading lists for MA and postgraduate students working within our school of Professional Development. We have a range of modules related to professional practice and this text applies theoretical nuance to practical recognition. In addition to this, the focus on emotional intelligence is a timely balance to policy directives on 'discipline' and enables students to develop a more critical position in their analysis. Anecdotally, my daughter, who is Head of Drama at an outstanding school in London has also read the book with great interest and passed it to colleagues within the school. In short, this book has received excellent endorsements from classroom and university practitioners and I have no hesitation in highly recommending the work in a variety of educational context.
