Discipline is not the answer. Our kid’s& young people have been lonely &many have experienced terror &loss &have not had the usual social groups to process these feelings with naturally.Pressure &harshness will cause compliance or rebellion.Both cause long term problems...

Problem with ‘Sweating the small stuff’ as DfE model behaviour management policy when it’s targeted at children living in poverty is the so called ‘small stuff’ like school shoes, equipment, uniform, is actually a big deal when you’re relying on a food bank.

Attachment Focused Classrooms provide the optimum opportunity for building relationships. Relationships are essential for learning which improves learning outcomes for ALL children but importantly, it gives children that life-changing trusted adult for those that may not have one

Building relationships and a rapport with students is important for them to access the learning you are trying transfer.
"When I like the teacher, I want to do their work. And I'll be like, 'I can learn this.'" Research shows that students who feel safe and supported by adults at school are better able to learn. #HowLearningHappens
