“We often think of behaviour management in terms of dealing with challenging behaviour, but Dr Rogers begins by looking at classroom organisation and whole-class strategies. Alongside the theory, he provides examples that create a much deeper understanding of exactly what works and what doesn’t.” - Special magazine

A text which really connects the theoretical with the application. A must for any trainee teacher and a thought-provoking text for established teachers.

As ever superb, straightforward advice from Bill Rogers. Easy to read with stacks of concrete suggestions to take away and try.

This 4th edition continues to deliver practical advice on the topic that bothers most trainee teachers - that of behaviour management. Changes from the previous edition include more case studies and some updated text especially with regard to group dynamics. The additional access to online materials includes video clips, podcasts, extra reading, behaviour management tools and more. The only criticism that I have of this very readable and very useful text is that I'd like to see more evidence from recent research for behaviour management.

This is a fabulous, accessible book written by someone who clearly understands what it is like to teach today's learners. Behaviour management is a fundamental part of teaching Functional Skills effectively and Rogers' hits the nail right on the head again.

Some good case studies which can be adopted for FE courses
