What Hirschi stated in 1969 feels even more relevant today when working with those most at risk in educational settings . A very common theme is the inability to see or admit to wanting to see any type of future. Our role is over time to try and enable thinking to take place

A thought for Wednesday when thinking about our communication and it's impact on behaviour and student response #education #Edutwitter #behaviour

having seen acting out behaviour from year 11 students over the past week, I'm sure others are too, the below may help us make sense of the internal struggle #edutwitter #behaviour #education

Some reasoning on why difficult behaviours may present and the impact of development or otherwise on them #edutwitter #behaviour #education

A Friday thought for when we may question the reaction of a student to ourselves. #edutwitter #education

Enabling us to understand why behaviour may occur even when we are doing everything correctly #behaviour #education #edutwitter

Too often I see an expectation that an external intervention will translate directly into improved classroom behaviour, does anyone ever think why this is expected? #edutwitter #behaviour

Opening our second respite provision for key stage 3 and 4 this week. Feels a long way from where we started on the football pitch over a decade ago. As ever the focus is enabling those who work with us to understand themselves and to think. #edutwitter #behaviour

First tweet for a long time as we come to the end of another academic year. From when we started this to now the need remains the same, consistency, thoughtfulness, presence. Looking beyond the present.

My latest blog post: headteacherdannyateachersblog.co.uk/read-me. Read about the wonderful Summer Camps NCC run for our young people.

ANOTHER new article from me for @TheAthleticUK.

About how football is used as a form of therapy in schools for kids deemed at risk, and how far beyond making it pro, football has a huge power to be a force for positive change in people’s lives.

Big thanks to Michael Keshani for his article on our work in @TheAthleticUK so well written and fully understood our theoretical stance #football #inclusion #education #mentalhealth

It is a different world from the semi-survivalist (Hunger?!😳)
Games in
Salford half a century ago?! 😳
Seriously though the reflections of a headmaster who has not had to exclude a pupil in FIVE YEARS.
Well worth listening to.

The proof is in the statistics, as Headteacher Danny at NCC states no student expulsions in 5 years, not all down to what takes place on the pitch weekly but due to a whole school approach to working with and understanding behaviour led by Mr Coyle and the staff Newman Catholic Coll #football #inclusion
