Summary:

The importance of teaching, social, emotional and behavioural skills has never been greater as shown by two recent government initiatives in Education: Every Children Matters and Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning (SEAL). The development of a child's social, emotional and behavioural skills is essential if they are to develop into well-rounded, capable adults. Marianna Csoti's book provides practical strategies for developing these skills with pupils, both in the classroom and in the wider school environment.
