Sommario/riassunto

This invaluable and authoritative guide avoids, as far as possible, legal jargon and technical language. It provides teachers in England and Wales with what they need to know in a clear, down-to-earth and informative manner. There are sections on everything from teachers' professional duties and child protection to physical restraint and discipline. This newly revised edition also considers the emerging phenomenon of cyber bullying and the wider effects of the digital age.
