When people say behaviour management is about ‘building relationships’, there’s some truth to that, but it’s *how* to build relationships that trainees need to know. Without that, it’s useless advice. Not wrong, just useless.
Great resource here for all staff.

Teachers often think they have higher standards than they do. Teachers with low standards undermine their colleagues. I understand why they might lower standards. It’s to survive in environment where kids in control. But lowering standards never the answer.
Unless you define with precision what you mean by ‘high expectations,’ you’re leaving gaps for others to fill. Ambiguity breeds chaos (ABC), & schools thrive when there is certainty, consistency & simplicity.
Was going to write a to-do list in prep for my SENDCO time tomorrow but decided to do a reverse - a “what I’ve already done list”. Amazing for my well-being to see how far I’ve come in 6 weeks 💪🏼♥️ we need to focus on what we have done rather than what’s still to do sometimes!

*Leadership* ‘The standard you walk past is the standard you accept’ This is so important for all levels of leadership in schools. Model this to colleagues when walking the school When leaders accept standards against the school expectations it weakens the culture
The idea that ' we shouldn't ask students questions because it will provoke anxiety' assumes that students cannot cope with being asked things, which makes it more likely they never learn to cope with it.
Task completion is a poor proxy for learning; this is something I wished I'd known in my early years of teaching. Here is a one-pager I have created for @PepsMccrea, summarising his notion of Backwards Planning.
