Summary How do you teach a class that refuses to sit down and listen? Surviving and Succeeding in Difficult Classrooms presents a blunt, truthful account of what it is like to be a teacher in a difficult class faced with apathy, defiance and aggression. This fully updated second edition offers a view of teaching that is not cynical, but rooted in clear educational values, and although it takes account of the worst possible circumstances, it provides an enthusiastic positive path to survival. Focusing on the secondary school - but of great value to all classroom teachers - it offers sensible, practical advice on how to survive and succeed in the face of tremendous difficulty.
