ABSTRACT
To lose sight of the whole – this might be the ‘whole person’ as in all aspects of human functioning, or it might be the whole as in all aspects of the relationship between the teacher and student, or it might be the whole as in the context of the school or local community – is to limit the value of what you are doing. The ‘whole’ can take many forms and is usually highly complex, but this is not an argument for ignoring its importance. In this chapter, we will describe in detail what the model looks like and explain how it is applied, introduce four key tools for effective behaviour management and suggest a suitable method for using the model in practice (peer coaching).
