Workshop Highlights

  • Enhance your confidence in effectively managing a wide range of disruptive behaviours that arise in the classroom.

  • Gain a deeper understanding of why your students misbehave and develop effective strategies for addressing such behaviour.

  • Cultivate a classroom environment that promotes responsible behaviour and facilitates optimal learning outcomes for all students.

  • Navigate confrontations, rule-breaking, aggression, withdrawal, and clowning with a suite of professional and appropriate techniques.

  • Transform disruptive behaviour into constructive learning opportunities by harnessing the energy of your more exuberant students.

  • Improve your classroom management approach by adopting preventative discipline strategies that proactively address issues before they occur.

  • Foster a safe and inclusive learning environment that is centred on knowledge acquisition and not simply on discipline. Join us for this professional development opportunity and gain the necessary tools and knowledge to create an effective, engaging classroom culture.

Welcome to our Win-Win Discipline workshop, designed to provide educators with practical tools and strategies to create positive and productive classroom environments.

As educators, we understand that managing disruptive behaviour can be a significant challenge, and that's why we have developed this comprehensive workshop to help you gain a new perspective on discipline problems and provide you with effective tools that really work.

Our approach to discipline is based on the Win-Win Discipline program, which is a comprehensive and successful programme designed to benefit both teachers and students. With this program, you'll learn how to create discipline solutions where both you and your students can win.

During this workshop, you'll gain the skills and knowledge you need to identify the four types of disruptive behavior and recognise the seven positions from which they spring.

You'll also learn what to do in the moment of disruption, how to follow-up effectively, and how to prevent future disruptions.

But our approach goes beyond simply ending disruptions. We believe in teaching responsible behaviors and life skills to empower students to become successful learners and members of their communities. By converting disruptions into learning opportunities, you'll be able to foster a more positive and engaged learning environment for your students.

Experience the power of the most comprehensive approach to discipline ever created. Join us for this workshop and gain the practical tools you need to implement a successful discipline programme in your classroom.

Why do we need Kagan?

We are facing four interrelated crises in education…

  • Academic performance in New Zealand is failing compared to other leading nations. Hundreds of research studies demonstrate cooperative learning increases achievement at all levels and in all academic areas.

  • Academic outcomes are inequitable for different races and socioeconomic classes. Cooperative learning promotes academic gains, especially for priority and low achieving learners, lowering the achievement gap and increasing educational equity.

  • Students increasingly lack essential character virtues, and social and communication skills. Cooperative learning improves the development of personal and social skills, largely missing in society, yet desperately sought in the current workplace.

  • More and more teachers don’t have the necessary skills to deliver everything that is required of them in schools of today: managing extreme student behaviour; ensuring student well-being; inclusion; teaching basic literacy and maths skills; using Culturally Responsive pedagogy; and so on…

    Kagan provides teachers with a pedagogical platform to effectively deliver the NZC, build a safe and positive classroom culture, develop social skills, promote positive behaviour management, and incorporates many aspects of CRP.

Each of these crisis can be addressed by frequent use of Kagan’s multi-faceted approach to cooperative learning.
