Advanced Skills for Classroom Management

A well-managed classroom does not happen magically - it takes planning, effort and commitment to create effective and responsive classrooms. For many teachers their craft is implicit; they have learned over many years what works and their skills operate at an intuitive level. But once made explicit, these same skills can be learned and practised even by novice teachers; studies show that understanding and using specific strategies for effective classroom management can transform teaching and learning.

This course is fully online and self paced meaning you can do your 20 hours of study at any time and place that suits you. You will be supported throughout by an expert tutor. This course takes place three times per year.

Identifying the 'secret' ingredients of effective classroom management allows us to incorporate evidence-based approaches and strategies into our own classroom practices. Being an effective teacher means having the ability to create an optimal learning environment for all students. This process requires ongoing development and application of a range of teaching and management skills every day and in every class. Effective teachers create and maintain orderly, stimulating and motivating learning environments. They foster a classroom culture where self-discipline, responsibility and creativity are encouraged and where students develop an awareness of the consequences of their own behaviour and a respect for others.

Better teaching, better behaviour, and higher achievement are all intertwined. This course helps teachers to develop their own repertoire of advanced classroom management skills, enhancing learning, behaviour and wellbeing. Drawing on fascinating psychological research, it delivers powerful strategies and proven techniques which can be easily adopted in your practice. It examines the influence of teachers’ attitudes, beliefs and expectations on pupils and encourages reflection and a self-evaluative approach. From evidence-based practices for building positive behaviour, to approaches for conflict resolution and preventing stress and burnout, this course provides you with a wealth of knowledge and practical resources to boost your confidence and skills.

This course is specifically aimed at teachers, SENCOs and others with a professional interest in developing their repertoire of classroom management skills.

Interactive Learning Assignments accompany each module. Each student is also required to complete a Reflective Assignment as well as a CPD record.

Upon completion of the course you will receive a Certificate of Continuing Professional Development and a Learning Log of your work, which can be included in your CPD portfolio.
