Audit Your Own Classroom: Are You Meeting Your Responsibilities?
Knowing is not the same as doing
Most teachers can list their responsibilities: supervise, apply the code of conduct, never hit a learner, report abuse, keep records.
The harder question is whether your classroom shows it on an ordinary Tuesday, with a crowded class and a late taxi. A gap you have not noticed is the one that hurts a learner, or you. 🔍
Pass the challenge and it arrives straight away as a PDF. Add it to your CV or LinkedIn, and anyone can check it's real.

Conflict in Your Classroom — Working Through Real Scenarios
14 min · Free
Walk your school grounds, mark safe and unsafe places and the times they turn risky, pick the hotspot that matters most, and write one practical fix you can take to your SMT.
Apply risk and protective factors to three case learners and to your own school — spotting what adds risk, what already protects, and what the school can do — without labelling any child.
Three paired classroom cases — a phone stand-off, a break-time fight, a learner who swears at you. Compare an escalating response with a professional one and learn to name exactly why one is better.
Learn to notice the signs that a learner or a conflict is heading towards violence, what to do with each sign, and write a one-page safety plan for your own class.
Take the punishments you reach for when you are tired and under pressure, and replace them one by one with responses that teach — in real classroom scenarios.
