offers two previously toured courses that have each received 100%
positive feedback from every delegate and are available for immediate booking.
These courses can take place on site or in a conference venue near you with a minimum booking of 6 people.
Behaviour Modification is my most popular course and is a proactive approach to tackling difficulties in
the workplace. Instead of the wagging finger and a list of DON’Ts it looks at how the teacher can change
his or her own behaviour in a positive way to improve their student’s ability to concentrate and show
respect to all staff present. It covers how we dress, our body language and the kind of wording we use
to obtain and maintain students focus throughout the whole lesson. We look at our professional
boundaries, how we give and receive praise and how we encourage students at all levels. We also look
at our exchanges with Colleagues and Managers and how we can adapt our approach to meetings and
daily interactions to improve our working relationships. Finally we tackle the sensitive subject of
Parent - Teacher interactions, giving attendees the confidence to start using this contact in a truly
effective way. In this way we restore the power balance in the classroom and enable teachers to
confidently deal with the day to day stresses of the workplace, keep a healthy work/life equilibrium and
maintain a professional attitude to all aspects of school life. It is a full day course, requiring attendees to
come with an open mind and a willingness to look objectively at their own practices. So that they will
leave the course with a task list of step by step actions to take over the following weeks, digital
resources to share with their team, improved confidence in their own abilities to handle difficult
situations and a renewed enthusiasm for their jobs.
Most courses will spend an entire day teaching just one element of the above. I don't. Your staff are intelligent people and do not need
me to waste their time regurgitating endless theories written by supposed experts who haven't set foot in a classroom environment in 20
years. If they want to know those things - they can just Google them! I stick to the practical aspects, teaching staff how to apply
simple techniques that I have been using successfully for 20 years.
This course is ideal for NQT’s, staff struggling with
classroom management and/or professional interactions
and anyone wishing to revive their teaching style.
This course looks at the following areas:
What is "Bullying"? - How we define it and therefore accurately assess what is and isn't Bullying.
What does it mean to Victims? - How they feel and therefore how it effects them now and in the future?
How do we help the Victims? - Practical techniques to empower the victims and give them the confidence to effectively
deal with Bullying situations in the future.
What does it mean to the Perpetrators? - How they feel and how this impacts on their behaviour.
How do we help the Perpetrators? - How we inspire Empathy, challenge them and change their behaviour patterns.
What does it mean to the Parents? How they are effected and are likely to react.
How do we support the Parents? Practical techniques and scripts on how to deal with parents of both the victims and
the bullies.
What does it mean for the School? - Who else is effected - such as staff and peers.
What is the Schools role in dealing with and preventing Bullying? Planning and writing procedures and PSCHE/SEAL
lessons. How to present effective assemblies for all ages, How to conduct Mediations, how to plan and run “Circle of
Friends”, how to run effective nurture groups sessions and how to understand the format of youth friendship groups
and use this to resolve regular conflicts.
This course is ideal for any staff member both teaching
and non-teaching at any level.

  • 21. Behaviour Modification is my most popular course and is a proactive approach to tackling difficulties in the workplace. Instead of the wagging finger and a list of DON’Ts it looks at how the teacher can change his or her own behaviour in a positive way to improve their student’s ability to concentrate and show respect to all staff present. It covers how we dress, our body language and the kind of wording we use to obtain and maintain students focus throughout the whole lesson. We look at our professional boundaries, how we give and receive praise and how we encourage students at all levels. We also look at our exchanges with Colleagues and Managers and how we can adapt our approach to meetings and daily interactions to improve our working relationships. Finally we tackle the sensitive subject of Parent - Teacher interactions, giving attendees the confidence to start using this contact in a truly effective way. In this way we restore the power balance in the classroom and enable teachers to confidently deal with the day to day stresses of the workplace, keep a healthy work/life equilibrium and maintain a professional attitude to all aspects of school life. It is a full day course, requiring attendees to come with an open mind and a willingness to look objectively at their own practices. So that they will leave the course with a task list of step by step actions to take over the following weeks, digital resources to share with their team, improved confidence in their own abilities to handle difficult situations and a renewed enthusiasm for their jobs. Most courses will spend an entire day teaching just one element of the above. I don't. Your staff are intelligent people and do not need me to waste their time regurgitating endless theories written by supposed experts who haven't set foot in a classroom environment in 20 years. If they want to know those things - they can just Google them! I stick to the practical aspects, teaching staff how to apply simple techniques that I have been using successfully for 20 years. This course is ideal for NQT’s, staff struggling with classroom management and/or professional interactions and anyone wishing to revive their teaching style.
