Foreword by David Didau.Samuel Elliott has been the pupil from hell.He knows what he needed from his teachers in order to turn his life around — and in this book he shares that knowledge with hard-pressed colleagues who just want to do their best for their pupils.In ASBO Teacher Samuel offers no-nonsense principles hewn from the chalkface of the modern British classroom: ideas and approaches that have worked for the author in the most challenging settings and with the most testing pupils.Covering a range of issues spanning behaviour management, lesson structure, resource preparation and narratives in the classroom, the book is a blueprint for becoming a particular kind of teacher — one who has high expectations, a concern for pupil well-being, and a knack for ushering learners into more effective learning.
