What to do





This section is about the practical aspects of setting up your classroom to lay the foundations of excellent relational practice. We will look at:

  • How to balance The Pull and The Push of classroom management 
  • How to create a classroom plan so you know exactly what the next steps are
  • How to apply a consequence without an angry reaction
  • How to structure support beyond the classroom
  • Why you must follow up every time and why that is a powerful strategy
  • How to use coaching to support children who struggle to follow the rules

There is a Q and A with students from Birmingham University in the UK where we talk frankly about consequences, difficult situations, being unshockable, rational Matrix-like responses and why phone calls are the best strategy.
