Policing Challenging Behaviour

Description

Science teacher Dr Sarah Longshaw visits a police training academy in an effort to learn how to gain more control over her Year 10 class.

She receives a behaviour management lesson from police trainer PC Donna Gair, who ensures that by the time her recruits start policing the streets of London they feel confident and authoritative.

PC Gair trains the recruits in verbal and non-verbal communication skills, which will enable them to take control of difficult situations.

Will PC Gair be able to help Dr Longshaw to be more assertive in the classroom and in turn enable her Year 10 students to take more control of their own behaviour?
