Synopsis

In the fast-paced, pressurised, often chaotic life of a school, there are times when even the best tried-and-tested ideas don't seem to work with some classes and some students. Even the most experienced teacher will have times when they feel de-skilled and incompetent. 'Teaching the Unteachable' is aimed at helping teachers deal with these situations and feelings. It explores factors behind those 'bad days' and looks at what can be done when nothing seems to work. Marie Delaney provides a summary of effective behaviour management strategies, drawn from her extensive experience of success (and failure) in working with pupils of all ages, and staff. She then offers an easily accessible framework for understanding the behaviour of those children for whom basic strategies don't always work. The author provides a further set of principles and good practice, showing how to use this enhanced understanding to reach those students who are just more difficult to teach. The result is a complete toolkit of skills that supports all teachers every day in the classroom.
