商品簡介
Based on the authors’ award-winning sanction-free approach, this book offers an innovative practical methodology for modifying challenging behaviour in the classroom. Steven Baker and Mick Simpson explain why challenging behaviour occurs and help primary and secondary teachers to meet it with compassion instead of punishment for the long-term benefits of the whole school community. Drawing on their experiences in challenging environments, such as pupil referral units and young offender institutions, the authors explore their strategies for managing behaviour without sanctions.
A School Without Sanctions moves the focus away from the short-term management of challenging behaviour in schools towards long-term strategies to modify behaviour. Drawing on neuroscience and evolutionary psychology, Steven Baker and Mick Simpson help teachers understand the causes of challenging behaviour and offer practical solutions that can be implemented in every classroom to improve relationships with students, boost student mental health and self-esteem, and protect teacher wellbeing.
