Description
Summary:When parents split-up, teachers often have to deal with serious challenges from pupils and parents. A panel of educators explore how teachers can deal with some common problem situations with Educational Psychologist Eva Wickham, . Three dramatised scenes depict typical situations, from a teacher struggling to contain arguing parents, to having to handle a disclosure in circle time or manage an angry teenager in class. The discussions concentrate on how teachers can deal effectively with these situations - what they can and cannot do realistically, practically and legally. Issues covered include managing tempers, dealing with confidences and addressing the behavioural impact on pupils. The panel is teachers Kate Darby (Bygrove Primary), Steph Garner (Sweyne Park Secondary), Kenny Wellington (Islington Green Secondary) together with Learning Mentor Andrew Beagley (Rosendale Primary) and Headteacher Sue Newby (Wroxton Primary School).
