'I believe this book will change the conversation in schools on
children's behaviour.' - Dr Luna Centifanti A School Without
Sanctions offers an innovative approach to behaviour management in
schools, prioritising compassion and behaviour modification over
punishment. Drawing on their award-winning methods, Steven Baker
and Mick Simpson explain why challenging behaviour occurs and
provide a toolbox of non-confrontational approaches that will
benefit the whole school community. When Steven and Mick set out to
transform their school's approach to behaviour, it changed
everything. With the help of Dr Alice Jones Bartoli at Goldsmiths,
they developed a sanction-free approach in their special school for
boys with social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) difficulties.
Far from descending into anarchy, lessons began to improve and
student-staff relationships flourished. The school is now rated
outstanding in all areas, and more importantly, student outcomes
have been remarkable. Steven and Mick apply this experience, as
well as their work in pupil referral units and young offender
institutions, to explore their strategies for managing behaviour
without the need for zero tolerance, discussing exclusions, trauma,
motivation and engagement along the way. Rooted in neuroscience and
evolutionary psychology, this book will revolutionise the way you
think about behaviour management, help boost student mental health
and academic achievement, and protect teacher wellbeing.
On Bloody Sunday, January 30, 1972, British paratroopers killed
thirteen innocent men in Derry. It was one of the most
controversial events in the history of the Northern Ireland
conflict and also one of the most mediated. The horror was recorded
in newspapers and photographs, on TV news and current affairs, and
in film and TV drama. In a cross media analysis that spans a period
of almost forty years up to the publication of the Saville Report
in 2010, "The British Media and Bloody Sunday" identifies two
countervailing impulses in media coverage of Bloody Sunday and its
legacy: an urge in the press to rescue the image and reputation of
the British Army versus a troubled conscience in TV current affairs
and drama about what was done in Britain's name. In so doing, it
suggests a much more complex set of representations than a
straightforward propaganda analysis might allow for, one that says
less about the conflict in Ireland than it does about Britain, with
its loss of empire and its crisis of national identity.
