About this course
You know the class. Period 3 on a Tuesday is looming, the learning has all but stopped, and the well-meaning advice is only adding to the pressure.
Take it one step at a time, starting with you, because you can't turn a class round while running on empty. Then look at the pupils as 30 individual relationships rather than one bad class, picture the classroom you want, and pick three non-negotiables to hold to every lesson, such as chairs tucked under before anyone leaves. You'll rebuild relationships by being consistent, talking with pupils and listening to them, and you'll notice the small wins so they grow.
It's a cycle, and you can come back to the start whenever a class begins to slip again.
- For early career teachers, teachers and teaching assistants. Primary and secondary.
