Poor pupil behaviour in schools has come under the spotlight this past week, following the publication of a new report by behaviour expert, Tom Bennett. He spent several months meeting classroom teachers and leaders from a variety of schools, trying to identify successful strategies used to tackle disruptive behaviour; he concluded that poor behaviour in schools is not being taken seriously and the extent of the problem has been underestimated by Ofsted.
His suggestion for funding to provide internal inclusion units to deal with troubled pupils has been widely welcomed. The report also includes case studies of behaviour management practices in improved schools, now rated outstanding. The government has responded to the report by setting out a number of measures to take forward.
