Kindness Principle in Action (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

The follow-up to Dave Whitaker's bestselling, The Kindness Principle, is packed with case studies and further guidance that continues to challenge the way behavior is understood and addressed in schools. Moving beyond control and compliance, it showcases how schools are building cultures rooted in relationships, empathy and genuine care. Drawing on real-world practice, the book explores the experiences and contexts shaping pupils' actions, exposing the limits of behaviorist approaches based on sanctions and compliance. In their place, it introduces the relational school-- grounded in trust, warmth and high expectations-- and the " warm-determined" approach, which combines compassion with a steadfast commitment to every child's success. Relationships are positioned not as a soft option, but as the foundation for meaningful change and inclusion. Aimed at teachers and leaders navigating accountability pressures, it offers a practical, hopeful alternative-- replacing fear with safety and exclusion with belonging. Both a guide and a call to action, it invites educators to rethink practice and build schools where every child can thrive.
