Opis

School Bullying: Insights and Perspectives examines the nature and extent of bullying in schools and gives a succinct and authoritative account of research into ways of reducing this problem. It offers a comprehensive evaluation of the success of different approaches, such as: developing a whole school policy; tackling bullying through classroom and curriculum materials; training lunchtime supervisors; improving the playground environment; and working directly with pupils involved in bullying situations. This book - and the companion volume, Tackling Bullying in Your School, which gives detailed guidance on implementing these strategies - should be useful to all professionals wishing to reduce the problem of bullying in schools. Peter Smith has also published Psychology of Grandparenthood (Routledge), Ecology of Pre-School Behaviour (CUP), Play in Animals and Humans (Blackwell), Understanding Children's Development (Blackwell), and Children's Play (Gordon and B.).
