Publisher's Synopsis
Good behaviour is a necessary condition for effective teaching and learning, and an important outcome of education. For pupils to learn they need a secure environment, a clear framework of expectations derived from an agreed view, consistently implemented, on how the school attends to the development of pupils and the values that the school promotes. This report contains evidence gathered by HMI during 1992-93 in their inspections of 138 primary schools, 181 secondary schools and 30 special schools. Its conclusions should be of value to all teachers and headteachers.
