Changing Theories and Practices of Discipline

Behaviour problems in our schools occupy a considerable part of the education agenda and media attention. The major thrust of the literature has been on the provision of new classroom management approaches. Too often these packages are inappropriate to the specific context of the school and its pupils. There are no quick-fix solutions. in this book, Slee proposes a critical re-examination of the school discipline issue. in doing so, he provides an overview of policy change; an examination of the major schools of thought on student discipline; a reconsideration of the context in which young people, teachers and schools now find themselves; and practical responses for addressing all levels of discipline policy making.Slee, Roger is the author of 'Changing Theories and Practices of Discipline' with ISBN 9780750702966 and ISBN 0750702966.
