Description
Summary:This CPD video shows how the working relationship between a teacher and teaching assistant breaks down over the management of classroom behaviour. The dramatisation shows the real story of how a TA is verbally abused by a Year 6 pupil after challenging his disruptive behaviour. The class teacher refuses to accept the TA's account of the event and prevents her reporting the incident. Should the teacher be more supportive of his TA? Should the TA take up the matter with the head of Year? Is it the teacher's role, not the TA s, to enforce good behaviour in the classroom?Both protagonists ask the viewer directly whether their decisions are correct, inviting you to make comments and suggestions about the scenario.
