Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Jeremy Rowe, the 'ultimate 21st century headmaster', is now a CEO who combines his 20 plus years of teaching experience with traditional values, and a realistic perspective, to put into practice an effective method of management that has previously helped him become a successful head teacher and public speaker. Jeremy has regularly written articles for a range of magazines and online publications, and he has also worked with PiXL and a range of schools and multi-academy trusts. He believes that implementing simple but effective rules for school conduct results in a happy and successful school.

Since establishing Independent Thinking 25 years ago, Ian Gilbert has made a name for himself across the world as a highly original writer, editor, speaker, practitioner and thinker and is someone who the IB World magazine has referred to as one of the world's leading educational visionaries.The author of several books, and the editor of many more, Ian is known by thousands of teachers and young people across the world for his award-winning Thunks books. Thunks grew out of Ian's work with Philosophy for Children (P4C), and are beguiling yet deceptively powerful little philosophical questions that he has created to make children's - as well as their teachers' - brains hurt.Ian's growing collection of bestselling books has a more serious side too, without ever losing sight of his trademark wit and straight-talking style. The Little Book of Bereavement for Schools, born from personal family experience, is finding a home in schools across the world, and The Working Class - a massive collaborative effort he instigated and edited - is making a genuine difference to the lives of young people from some of the poorest backgrounds.A unique writer and editor, there is no other voice like Ian Gilbert's in education today.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

SORTING OUT BEHAVIOUR is the view from the head teacher s chair when it comes to getting behaviour right across the whole school.

If you want to get the public, the papers and politicians hot under the collar you only need mention ?classroom behaviour . It s a subject everyone has an opinion on ? and it s rarely positive. For every media-fuelled horror story of disruptive behaviour there is a knee-jerk, sack the teachers, blame the parents, get the troops in response which often makes things worse when it comes to actually engaging children in learning. This book is not only about effective behaviour strategies that genuinely work but it is also special as it has been written by a practising head teacher, drawing on that unique perspective of whole school behaviour. Full of helpful, practical, do-able tips and ideas it is relevant for any teacher, manager or leader in all sorts of schools.

?I strongly recommend this extremely useful and practical guide, which demonstrates that effective behaviour management is about clarity, transparency, consistency and a set of manageable policies and procedures which are kept under constant review. Drawing on the author s vast, first-hand experience, it is a source of common sense and practical pointers which would enable all school staff from trainees to experienced school leaders to review their behaviour policies, practices and procedures.
Brian Lightman, General Secretary, Association of School and College Leaders

?Thank you to Jeremy Rowe for providing a plain English, common sense, easy to read guide about behaviour. Perhaps more importantly, he reminds us that children aren t criminals and that most schools are calm, productive, orderly places that are far removed from the image so often portrayed in the media. We need to hear that message more often.
Fiona Millar, Guardian Columnist
