Students telling you who deserves a detention or questioning why you didn’t sanction someone?  It’s frustrating, undermining – and it adds to the noise when you’re already handling behaviour. If this culture is creeping into your classroom, this episode will guide you on what to do next!

IN THIS EPISODE, I DISCUSS:

• Why this dynamic is so frustrating – and so common
• How to break the cycle with a calm, clear class reset
• What to say when students start calling out behaviour decisions
• Why standing firm isn’t unkind – it’s part of compassionate, credible teaching

This is a perfect example of the approach I teach.

Yes, we lead with compassion. Yes, we value connection. But that doesn’t mean we don’t stand firm, hold boundaries, and have strong expectations. In fact, doing both is exactly what builds credibility and buy-in with our students.
