Summary:"Teachers Behaving Badly? is concerned with behaviour that may occur between adults working in and connected to the school, and teacher-older pupil relations that have been initiated by both parties. Leaders faced with trying to sort out these issues find that they are not always clear-cut; often there are no easy resolutions and the consequences may be potentially explosive for the individuals concerned, for the school and for the community." "With authors from the General Teaching Council, the National Union of Teachers and the University of Edinburgh, this book will help you think about how values change over time and make decisions arising from the sexual behaviour of your staff. Real-life scenarios and case studies are included throughout the book, and advice is offered on preparing for critical incidents and continuing professional development. This book raises the dilemmas and outlines the employment and criminal law in jargon-free language."--Jacket.
