Managing Misbehaviour in Schools deals with the theoretical background of developing, assessing and understanding children's behavior; the relationship between learning and behavior problems; the dynamics of emotional and behavioral difficulties; and behavioral approaches. In later chapters, the contributors consider the effect of pastoral care on behavior in schools and on liaison with other helping agencies, as well as with work with parents. In a wide-ranging final chapter, the editors review the various strands of the book, developed from theory to classroom and school practice, and offer a set of practical guidelines for teachers and students in their daily task of managing pupils' behavior to enable learning to take place.
