Children behaving

The Royal Society of Chemistry is hosting a series of events, designed to support new teachers as they begin or continue their journey in science education. These sessions are primarily aimed at teachers who have been teaching less than five years, but any science teacher seeking a reminder of behaviour management strategies are welcome to attend. Spaces are limited so we recommend signing up early. You can choose to attend all the sessions in the series or simply select the sessions that best meet your needs.

Session outcomes

By the end of the session, you will:

  • Know some simple tips and tricks to manage behaviour
  • Take away some strategies for managing behaviour during practical work
  • Know where to find resources to support behaviour management

Session information

This session will be run by Emma Bickerstaffe who is an deputy subject leader of science at Horizon Community College in Barnsley. Prior to her career in teaching, Emma completed a PhD in polymer chemistry researching the development of new stimuli-responsive therapeutics. In 2021, she won the RSC Early Career Prize for Excellence in Secondary and Further Education.

In this session Emma will share practical behaviour management tips tailored specifically for science teachers, along with highlighting useful RSC resources and articles that can support your practice. There will be opportunity to ask questions. 

Join us to increase your confidence in managing behaviour or simply remind yourself of some handy tips and tricks!
