Where We Are Going Wrong on Behaviour - reflections on the Bill Rogers interview
Jan 07, 2024 Season 2 Episode 44
Matt Findlay and Femi Adeniran

Today’s discussion is prompted by the Bill Rogers interview that recently appeared in the TES titled: ‘Bill Rogers: Where we are going wrong on behaviour’.

Matt and Femi discuss:

-          The problem of COVID and re-victimising students

-          Teacher’s being inclined to appease students rather than lead on behaviour.

-          If you’re not in control it’s not a safe environment

-          Relationships and how to respond and relate to students

-          How do things change when you know the causative pathology for the a student’s antisocial behaviour

-          Curriculum for behaviour, and the problem of differing conceptions of what teachers mean by poor behaviour

-          Restorative conversations

-          The power of behaviour routines (and the risk that they become performative)

-          And the unhelpful contributions of commentators who do not understand schools and classrooms
