"This is not a book about general classroom behaviour management. It focuses specifically on dealing with the high-end of challenging behaviour; and explores ways of working with the kind of student that exhibits this behaviour: the kind of student that is often proceeded by their reputation, known for their ability to destroy well-planned lessons in a matter of seconds." From the introduction This realistic and authoritative guide provides teachers with a range of practical strategies for managing the really tough students in their class. Engaging and uplifting, it should be made obligatory reading for frazzled teachers everywhere.
