Explains how schools can establish and sustain a behaviour
management approach rooted in values, acceptance and a genuine
understanding of children's behaviour. Written by Dave Whitaker,
The Kindness Principle: Making relational behaviour management work
in schools advocates a behaviour management approach rooted in
values, acceptance and a genuine understanding of children's
behaviour. In an education system that too often reaches for the
carrot-and-stick approach to dealing with poor pupil behaviour, an
approach built on kindness and compassion might just provide the
cure. The Kindness Principle begins with the idea that
relationships should be at the heart of behaviour management and
culture, and sets out the ways in which the adoption of relational
approaches can help create safer and happier schools. Schools where
all staff and learners are valued and understood, where
expectations and standards are high, and where kindness and
acceptance matter. Dave Whitaker explores why it is so important to
understand children - offering techniques and advice on how to work
effectively with all children (even the most challenging and
troubled ones) without resorting to zero-tolerance, no-excuses and
consequence-driven practices. Dave also shares a wealth of
real-life experiences from some of the most challenging schools in
the country, along with research-informed insights that will help
teachers understand children's behaviour in a new light. To this
end he provides a wealth of guidance to help develop effective
practice and learn from people who have actually walked the walk
and don't just talk the talk. Furthermore, the topics covered in
the book include: restorative approaches, unconditional positive
regard, building personal resilience, structures and routines, and
the ins and outs of rewards and sanctions. Suitable for teachers,
school leaders and anyone working with children.
