Behaviour, and how to deal with it, is a concern for trainee, new and experienced teachers. Alphabetical entries cover things like ADHD, low level behaviour and mood hoovers, and contain case studies from Primary and Secondary schools. Strategies and advice on how to deal with common issues are presented in bite-size chunks, so this book allows teachers to find what they need quickly. Links throughout show readers who to follow on Twitter for further advice, support and collaboration.

This book whilst focused on the school sector has some excellent examples of ways to mange behaviour. I especially like the A to Z index of behaviours and the advice given to support managing these behaviours. I will be putting this on the reading list to accompany other texts that support classroom management
