What they didn't tell you about how to increase engagement and decrease unsettled behaviour. Teachers have long been taught to use different strategies: one for behaviour; one for learning. Start with control to get their attention, then move on to the learning. This isn't working. It's time for a change. Jen Foster brings a new approach. One that recognises that behaviour and learning cannot and should not be separated. One that harnesses the power of engagement to put children's focus on learning at the heart of every lesson. Educator Jen Foster offers teachers a fundamental unwritten code for all lessons. Exploring the research behind what we know about children's learning, Jen outlines why Flow, Play, Drive, Connection and Movement are key elements for all lessons. Jen presents examples of effective classroom activities, inspiration for lesson planning and practical support for teaching. Classroom Engagement: The Unwritten Code shows you how to bring the power of engagement to your lessons. Engaged children are more focused, more motivated, happier and more ready to learn.

Oh hey! Thank you for being here. Let me introduce myself. My name is Jen Foster and I am an educator. A few years ago, I started an Instagram account dedicated to teaching. I started by just sharing everything and anything and loving having a community of keen beans like me. But it didn't take me long to spot something quite odd. Scrolling through thousands of teachers' experiences around the world there were two things that stood out like a sore thumb: Behaviour was this huge obstacle in teaching;The guidance around behaviour was either inconsistent, vague or unhelpful. So, I decided to learn everything I could about behaviour. I explored outside the education shelves and bought way too many books about neuroscience, positive psychology, business, and parenting. The more I learnt, the more I reflected on my own practice and my own experiences in schools. I asked educators in my community their opinions on behaviour, and this is what I found out: 93% felt that they had inadequate behaviour training as a trainee teacher 88% feel they have inadequate behaviour training as a qualified teacher So, isn't it about time we shined a spotlight on behaviour? Behaviour: The lost Modules is the book you wish you had read before stepping into a classroom. The book you wish had been required reading on your university reading list. A book that is practical, easy to read and tells you what you need to know about behaviour in primary schools. A book by a teacher for teachers, drawing on common sense, personal experiences and current research.

What if your classroom wasn't just a place where teaching happens . . . but a tool that makes teaching easier? In this groundbreaking book, educator and behaviour specialist Jen Foster shows you how the classroom itself can act as a third teacher - shaping behaviour, boosting engagement, supporting regulation, and reducing the invisible drains that make school harder for children and teachers. Drawing on neuroscience, psychology, and years of practice in schools, Foster reveals why so many classrooms run on default settings that exhaust children's body budgets and how simple, intentional design choices can transform them into spaces where pupils feel safe, connected and ready to learn. Inside you'll find: *A new framework for Classroom by Design, built around connection, regulation, neuroinclusion, management and engagement *Research-backed insight into how environments influence behaviour, attention and emotional wellbeing *Practical, teacher-friendly strategies that save time, reduce cognitive load and make routines run themselves *Guidance for designing neuroinclusive spaces that support every child without overwhelming the teacher *Tools to help your classroom work as hard as you do - all year long This isn't a classroom setup book. It's a blueprint for building classrooms that help children flourish all year long. The essential book for every primary teacher who wants behaviour to feel easier, teaching to feel lighter, and learning to feel joyful.
