School Behaviour Secrets with Simon Currigan and Emma Shackleton

Teaching A Tricky Class? This Is The First Thing To Fix


Listen Later

Got a tricky class that feels harder to teach than it should?

Sometimes the problem isn’t one big behaviour issue - it’s the smaller repeated issues that drain everyone’s attention, patience and energy.

In this episode of School Behaviour Secrets, we look at why some classes feel so difficult to manage, how problematic routines can create hidden workload for teachers and pupils, and why simply telling pupils what to do once is rarely enough.

You’ll discover why children don’t always transfer good behaviour from one classroom to another, and how clear, practised routines can lower everyone’s stress and make lessons feel calmer and easier to teach.
