In this companion to his best-selling book Running the Room: The Teacher’s Guide to Behaviour,  Tom Bennett goes into more detail about how to apply those principles to the classroom:

  • How to deal with students who are late
  • What are the best ways to work with parents?
  • Managing cover lessons successfully
  • How to tame smartphones
  • The best way to design a seating plan
  • How to start the lesson for the first time
  • Dealing with low-level disruption
  • Getting the class quiet when you – and they – need it most

And much more. Using practical examples, plain language and evidence-informed techniques, Tom guides teachers new and old to a better understanding of how to run the room everyone needs.

Running the room

Running the Room is the teacher’s guide to behaviour. Practical, evidence-informed, and based on the expertise of great teachers from around the world, it addresses the things teachers really need to know to build the classrooms children need.

Bursting with strategies, tips and solid advice, it brings together the best of what we know and saves teachers, new or old, from reinventing the wheels of the classroom. It’s the book teachers have been waiting for.

Our Mission

Our mission is to bring the best training available to the places that need it the most. We believe that economic circumstances should not be a barrier to achieving this training, and aim to deliver it to every budget strata.

All of our courses are designed with practice in mind. They have been built by serving and recently serving practitioners in the field with years of experience in running classrooms, schools, and implementing and delivering training.

Where necessary, we unpick the evidence bases behind these strategies, look at the psychology affecting human interactions, and consider the reasons why people behave in different ways.
