Classroom Behaviour Management: Effective Strategies for Teachers

The Growing Challenge of Classroom Behaviour

Recent reports indicate a significant increase in challenging behaviour in schools across England. A BBC survey found that nearly one in five teachers have been hit by a pupil this year, highlighting the urgent need for effective behaviour management strategies. Lower-level disruption to learning is a constant challenge in many classrooms.
