Positive Classroom Management In All Educational Settings

This is an ‘Off the shelf’ resource that has been used successfully many times to encourage and promote ‘Positive Management in Classrooms’ during my career as an educator and trainer in all educational settings. It can be used as an introduction to this critical area of school and classroom management for INSET and staff training. The emphasis is on positive classroom management by identifying and explaining areas of conflict through the ‘Conflict Spiral’ and then outlining ‘De-escalation’ techniques using the C.A.L.M. approach. The presentation is interactive and allows for group and collegiate discussion to build on a whole school approach to positive classroom management.
N.B. ‘The Pepsi Challenge’ is the use of a bottle of Pepsi/Coca-Cola, shaken to illustrate how actions can often destabilise and escalate a sitution in a classroom setting.
