Scenario 1 • As a senior leader you have been given a note from a pupil to go along to class B to support a teacher. When you arrive the teacher and child (a) are clearly in conflict. The teacher demands instant support, refusing to teach the child until every sanction in your behaviour policy has been applied. The adult cannot back down and is very emotional. The rest of the class look on, obviously enjoying the distraction from learning. Consider • the response of the other children • the child in conflict with the teacher • the teacher • In your groups consider how much does adult emotion cost in your school?
