In the style of a Teacher Training<\/em> notebook, this is a quick guide for teachers of upper secondary schools and vocational training centres (VTCs) <\/strong>presenting 9 classroom scenarios <\/strong>in which students behave in a dysfunctional way. The guide offers suggestions<\/strong> on which approach teachers should adopt \u2014 and which must avoid \u2014 when facing with problematic behaviour.<\/p>\n

By analysing different situations, teachers will be better equipped to prevent disruptive behaviour and foster an inclusive and welcoming environment<\/strong> for all students.<\/p>\n
