CURRENT TITLES Persuasive Scripts - how to get people to do what you want
By Bernard Allen
Persuasive Scripts is a comprehensive practical guide to human thinking
and behaviour. It describes why people behave the way they do and how
they can be helped to behave better. The front and rear brain model
offers a clear and simple framework for understanding the mind which
both adults and children find useful in understanding their own
behaviour and that of others.
Persuasive Scripts is also quite a funny book!
Bernard has written, illustrated and produced a range of training
materials, videos, books and articles on positive behaviour management.
He has advised the Department for Education and Skills and lectured in
schools and universities throughout the UK. He is a trustee of the
National Control & Restraint (General Services) Association, and a
co-opted member of the executive of NAES (the national association for
schools catering for children and young people with social, emotional
and behavioural difficulties). Bernard has managed three successful
schools for children and young people with emotional and behavioural
difficulties over a period of twelve years. Having received favourable
Ofsted and Social Service Inspection reports he decided to quit while
he was ahead.

 Safeguarding Children SAFEGUARDING STAFF
By Bernard Allen
A common sense approach to the law and guidance in relation to physical restraint and behaviour management. It is designed to give confidence to those who work in difficult circumstances to promote the best interests of children. It explains why guidance in the past has sometimes failed and how it could be improved in the future. It encourages teams of professionals to question guidance whenever it appears to work against the best interests of the child. It also shows how the best way to safeguard staff is to focus upon safeguarding children.
When professionals are encourraged to think, rather than blindly following guidance, then they are more likely to choose the best option for the child concerned.
