Staff Professional Development

Classroom Commerce

classcommerce.jpg“I have come to the frightening conclusion I am the decisive element in the classroom – its my personal approach that creates the climate.  It is my daily mood that makes the weather. As a teacher I possess tremendous power to make a child’s life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration.  I can humiliate or humour, hurt or heal.  In all situations my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated, and a child humanised orde-humanised.” Dr H Ginott - teacher, author, child psychologist and psychotherapist
