CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT MADE SIMPLE
TAKE BACK CONTROL OF YOUR CLASSROOM
Are you a teacher?
Do you struggle with classroom management? Does your organisation struggle with students that just won't engage? Do you have students that make you & your colleagues' lives a living hell? Do you feel like your students manage you rather than the other way around?
If so, you need to teach like an Action Hero.
Karl C. Pupé, the author of "The Action Hero Teacher: Classroom Management Made Simple," runs workshops that help teachers feel like heroes in their classrooms. As a former NEETs Coordinator and SEMH teacher, Karl shares his wealth of knowledge gained by working with some of London’s most challenging students. In his straightforward and conversational style, Karl will teach you:
• The four types of students that are in every class and how to manage them.
• How to set rules your students will actually follow.
• The three most common teaching styles that will turn your class against you and how to avoid them.
• How to get respect and influence your students, quickly and easily.
• How to talk to your angriest learners, without freaking out.
And much more. Although all his methods are based on scientific and psychological principles, his workshops are dynamic, fun and very relevant to the everyday teacher who wants to make a difference in the classroom.

The Social Contract - we will look at how to set effective Ground Rules that the students will value and respect with minimal effort.
FULL DAY WORKSHOP
5 HOURS PLUS
This workshop is the most extensive of the range. The whole-day workshop includes everything in the 'part-day workshop' but adds:
Case study reviews - we will analyse real world scenarios where potential flashpoint situations may occur in your classroom. Armed with tools that you will be taught, you will learn to troubleshoot & look at alternative yet effective ways to resolve conflict.
Study how body language and tone of voice affect your perceived authority and how to use your body as a classroom management tool.
We will look at 'emotional hijacking' - the state of being that humans enter when they are distressed, angry or afraid and how that leads to severe disruptions in the classroom. We will study the biology of ‘emotional hijacking,’ the signs and learn how to resolve these situations when they occur.
