Introduction
Perhaps the most enduring of all questions when it come to the elusive ownership of a shiny new outstanding commendation in the discipline of teaching is how did I quite get here and how do I maintain it. The aim of the book has one simple drive; to place you firmly on the track of being an outstanding teacher by promoting outstanding classroom behaviour. Outside the realm of this book, unfortunately, is just how you maintain being an outstanding teacher through he ebb and flow of the temporal scale and the changing political geography. Nevertheless, reading this book will give you the knowledge and skills to successful navigate, arguably, one of the most fundamental aspects of teaching, positive discipline.
I will now proceed to outline how this book will provide, whether you are a student or interested practitioner looking for ideas, a sound knowledge of behaviour management. The book will be divided into three core areas: organisation, classroom behaviour strategies and calming learning styles.

Bibliography
Organisation
1. Beginning of year
With the low level hum of excitement before meeting your new class it is worthwhile to remember that how you start the year will set a strong bench mark for how the rest of the year will unfold. The proverbial setting out one’s stall springs to mind in order to facilitate the right type of first encounter with your new little darlings.
Trundling through the school door full of excitement and trepidation a well organised teacher will already be fully organised
