Welcome to the new Behaviour2Learn RU-vid channel (formerly Behaviour4Learning), where you'll find films focusing upon establishing positive relationships in learning between pupils, teachers, parents and other professionals.
The resources on this channel are mainly intended to assist trainee teachers and teachers in developing positive attitudes and approaches to pupils in the classroom.
As the name suggests, we are trying to establish in the minds of new teachers the importance of linking the behaviour of pupils with the learning that they do. Quite simply, we believe that if teachers offer relevant, stimulating lesson content delivered in an environment where there is a mutually respectful relationship between them and their pupils, fewer problems relating to behaviour will occur.
I trained the same time as these guys and still teaching. As its September I thought back to my first teaching job and was worse than these but so much better now. I hope they're still in the profession and thriving.
I was in Special needs School all my life. Same thing happened to Clinton McKenzie who later went on to turn professional Boxing afte losing to Surgar Ray Leonard in the 1976 Montreal Olympics
I was actually in an EBD school and I can say that this video doesn’t quite show the harsh reality of it all. It was as close to prison you can get in a school environment honestly. We used to be restrained and get black eyes because of it. We’d riot and find it fun. Love goes out to anyone watching this that went to a similar school and knows what I’m talking about. Mine was called Phoenix in a place called Grantham. Now called Greenfields
Yh I completely get you, Infact I just happened to go to this exact school in the video a few years ago, although I wasn’t at Cuckmere house at the time they was filming, but Yh I also don’t think they are allowed to film the full on fights without permission or something like that.
Well said, i went to Cloughwood in Hartford, Northwich! Fighting every day, getting restrained by multiple teachers , thrown in a bare room as isolation. Nothing in the room , plexiglass windows , and a radiator that was A never turned on, and B bolted to the wall with an iron bar accros it because i ripped the previous one off the wall and flooded the room 🤣👌🏼 when we was good, the school was good. I will say that. We had MX bikes and enduro bikes 🤣 best one was a Kawasaki KDX 200CC. But when u have teachers trying to trigger you just so they can get hands on, coming home after a 2 hour detention at 6pm covered in bruises and grases! They use any small opportunity to criminalise the kids aswell, i ran past a teacher trying ti get at another lad, my arm bumped past hers. She had me arrested. Infact my 1st ever offence was for breaking my English teachers nose, i was 13 and 4st 4.. he could of just cleaned himself up and gave me a weeks isolation or suspension. But no, i got arrested and suspended for 4 weeks! List goes on. The places are like jungles
💯 to both of you, you were both bringing back so many memories for me. Both good and bad! I swear it reminds me so much of prison and youth offenders. Probably why a lot of people unfortunately get rehabilitated into the prison system and never make it out again
The teacher from the uk has appalling strategies. Her teaching is incredibly dull. Look at the classroom !! She is negative and monotone. I’d be in the book corner.
Would love to know where they are now! Watching in my trainee year under lockdown to get a more broad experience. Kudos to these NQTs for allowing these to be shared! Love the self reflection these two have, great quality. You can see that they can't see what they're doing wrong, and they are trying to improve - nice work. Really helped me watching this.
I taught in a similar school in South London as an NQT around 10 years ago. It really can be a baptism of fire - it was for me and seemed to be for these two. I made many of the same mistakes these teachers made, but it was a huge learning curve for me. It meant a decade later classroom management is my great strength. It’d be interesting to know if these two stuck it out. If they did, I’d bet they’re outstanding teachers by now. Unfortunately a lot of new teachers give it up after a few years
The music teacher waving his finger in that boys face with his creepy voice 😳 my children have attended 2 high schools...one uses isolation like thus the other uses 'refocus'...so they are removed from lessons and instead do lessons relevant to their personal growth (as well as maths and English embedded) They don't like being removed from their friends (could be 1 day to 5 days depending on the 'crime') but the time is used effectively. I would say its as much of a deterent but much more rehabilatative and restorative
2:30 That's just rubbish. If this was true then every class a teacher taught would have exactly the same standards of behaviour. Teachers need to get away from this idea that everything students do is a reflection of their own actions. Some students are extremely challenging and their behaviour is totally disruptive across the board and that is the student's fault and no one else's.
I remember both these teachers very well. Clare always seemed to have the more difficult classes to teach from my experience at Parkside. Vous etiez une bonne professeur Madame Murray. Ca doit etre difficile, especiallement dans un college.
One thing I suggest for special ed teachers to do, especially at the elementary level, is for them to make unannounced visits to troubled students' homes to help the parents or guardians discipline them weekday evenings, weekends, holidays and summers, as long as the teachers are still teaching them. This is what I support as a way for students to be disciplined at school AND at home.
I had an in school suspension for 3 hours in school it was so boring and scary I hated it I had to sit and do work for the whole 3 hours I wasn’t allowed to go to my normal classes I wasn’t allowed to see my friends I had to be in a room doing work and being supervised be a teacher
Well said. My niece is 4 and she’s becoming a bit of a “character” to say the least. She has more toys than Santa’s workshop and demands a lot, apparently having tantrums galore. She now has a behaviour/reward chart, but honestly it should’ve been addressed earlier.
The problem is THREE-FOLD.... Over-crowded classrooms, Lack of parental support & involvement, and the new Restorative Discipline strategies imposed upon teachers & school by the Federal government. It's all one huge debacle.
Appreciate Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I would love your opinion. Have you researched - Trentvorty Kids Science Theorem (do a google search)? It is an awesome exclusive product for becoming an excellent parent minus the normal expense. Ive heard some decent things about it and my best friend Jordan after many years got amazing results with it.
