Outstanding Teaching & Learning
or Outstanding Behaviour?

3. NFER Teacher Voice Omnibus February 2012 survey: pupil behaviour
Over two-fifths (41%) of teachers rated the training in managing pupil behaviour they had received during initial teacher training (ITT) as ‘poor’ or ‘very poor’; 36 per cent felt it was ‘acceptable’, while around one fifth were positive in their response, stating that the training had been ‘good’ or ‘very good’.

4. ‘Improving teacher training for behaviour’
The Behaviour Forum
Charlie Taylor, the Government’s expert adviser on behaviour, developed
‘Improving teacher training for behaviour’
to complement the new Teachers’ Standards that all teachers have to demonstrate from September 2012.

5. Improving teacher training for behaviour
Is a description of the knowledge, skills and understanding that trainees will need in order to be able to manage their pupils’ behaviour.
Effective teacher training incorporates activities and teaching that leads to these outcomes and prepares trainees to manage behaviour confidently and with authority.
It is important to note that good teaching is the most effective way to get good behaviour. Teachers who plan and teach dynamic, stimulating lessons based on sound assessment and excellent subject knowledge are likely to experience fewer difficulties with behaviour.

The Behaviour Forum
Behaviour management forum
Outwood Grange Academy Teaching School
in partnership with Sheffield Hallam University coordinates, annually, a behaviour management forum that places 146 trainees in over 10 partner schools.
It involves over thirty colleagues and numerous teachers and is followed up in general professional studies in the university. The forum takes place between trainees’ first and second school placements. Trainees observe outstanding teaching, ask questions of student panels and learn how different schools develop and implement school policies.
