Complete Guide to Behaviour for Teaching Assistants and Support Staff

«′This book not only provides insightful support for the Teaching Assistant (TA) in dealing with difficult behaviour within the class room setting, it also helps to set out and define the role and expectations of the TA. Over the past decade, these have dramatically shifted and, as such, this book would be of equal value to TAs and classroom teachers themselves, in working together to come up with a more defined and structured role for the TA within the classroom. Chris Lee has covered three broad approaches to dealing with behaviour issues in a clear, systematic way. Refreshingly, he does not claim to have all the answers, and he invites the reader to reflect on their own experience and practice whilst encouraging an individual approach, thus recognising that we all have distinct values and skill sets. It is an empowering book which stimulates thought and inspires positive action, whilst giving the reader practical tools for the tool box′ -

′This is a well-structured book that has a clear layout and is easy to navigate. It signposts the reader to further references, useful websites and makes appropriate links to a variety of national standards. This book will be invaluable to teaching assistants at any level of their professional journey, as the activities lend themselves to personalised critical reflection of their own views and practice. It offers an empathetic yet realistic view of some of the opportunities and challenges surrounding issues of behaviour for teaching assistants and is underpinned by sound theoretical perspectives′ - Wendy Messenger, Senior Lecturer in Education, University of Worcester

By providing a thorough grounding in the theory behind behaviour management, followed by suggestions for successful strategies to use in the classroom, this book gives the reader the confidence to manage the challenging behaviour of children and young people in educational contexts.



Written specifically for teaching assistants and support staff, this book covers behaviour, motivation and discipline issues with their specific role and position in mind. Supported by the views and responses of current students on Foundation Degrees and those working towards HLTA status, the book reflects the difficulties, dilemmas and successes of this vital group of people working in today's classrooms.





There are three main types of teaching assistant: the discipliner; the negotiator; the counsellor. This book helps the reader to find their own behaviour management style, and their own way of working.





Useful features include:


- chapter objectives


- exercises and activities


- case studies


- further reading.





This book is idea for those studying on a Foundation Degree, working towards Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA) or anyone working in a supporting role in a Primary or Secondary setting.





Chris Lee was until recently Senior Lecturer in Education and Head of the School of Continuing Professional Development at the Faculty of Education, University of Plymouth. He has taught in secondary and special schools, and continues to work with teachers on issues of bullying and behaviour management. He is now a freelance educational consultant.
