It combines their insights with easy to implement tools, worksheets and resources drawing on proven Restorative Practice, Transactional Analysis, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy approaches. It will provide you with a fresh perspective - to see what is really going on in your classroom - and will give you the confidence to provide the support your students really need in order to thrive.

Whether you are a school leader, teacher or classroom assistant; primary or secondary; in mainstream, SEND or alternative provision, this book will help you to create positive change.
