Helping Troubled Pupils in Secondary Schools: v. 2

There is increasing public and national concern about the extent of pupils' behavioural, personality and emotional problems, and growing evidence that teachers are not trained to combat and help those who manifest disorders. This two-volume work attempts tp remedy the deficiency by synthesising existing research and suggesting practical solutions to the problems. Volume 1 concentrates on social, psychological and professional issues. This volume focuses on academic and behavioural topics, with some managerial issues such as low attainers, non-attenders and the combined role of home and school. This book is intended for educationalists and secondary teachers.
