Sue Cowley’s bestselling behaviour guide is back, updated and better than ever.

‘Day after day, you arrive at your job, only to face students who simply will not behave. You begin to dread coming into work, knowing that you have to face such a difficult day… What can you do? First, read this book.’

In this brand new edition, Sue takes a detailed look at positive behaviour management, considers recent advances in understanding self-regulation, and offers specific advice on tackling behavioural challenges in the post-Covid classroom. Getting Your Class to Behave is the positive, practical answer to poor behaviour you’ve been looking for!

The latest and greatest edition of the classic Getting the Buggers to Behave, this behaviour management bible has long been a firm favourite with trainees, early career teachers and experienced staff alike. The advice ranges from the basics of behaviour management to how to deal with any tricky class and is applicable whether you are working in the early years, primary, secondary or further education. Sue offers honest, straightforward support with case studies, anecdotes, and level-specific examples in every chapter.

Sue knows that no matter how much passion and care you have for the job, there’s no match for poor behaviour like tried-and-tested techniques. If your two-year-olds are ignoring you, your Year 11s are distracted, or your tutor group is not-so-quietly chaotic then this is the book for you!
