Far from being just another book on behaviour, this is a blueprint for how behaviour should be in schools: starting from the simple premise that when the adults change, everything changes. Much of what is in this book is not rocket science - it is practical, day-to-day, common-sense advice written by an author who has more than earned his -˜behaviour stripes' in real schools, working in real classrooms with real children.



Paul's ideas won't appeal to everyone. Some adults will find holding the mirror up to themselves and looking at how they manage behaviour in school far too uncomfortable. However, for the more enlightened who realise that how we have managed behaviour in the past is simply not the way to manage behaviour in the future, this book will be a revolutionary read. It is a book that you will go back to repeatedly and each time you will find something new to think about; potentially this is the book that could bring about seismic changes in the behaviour in your school.
