Series: Routledge New and Critical Studies in Education

This novel volume investigates the motivations behind disruptive pupil behaviour and offers practical guidance through discussion of a novel theoretical framework that explores how students perceive schooling, uncovering what their behaviour can tell us about how to adjust the school environment.

Drawing on cutting-edge research and internationally relevant themes, chapters argue that non-compliant behaviour by students is not mindlessly reactive but is purposeful – a means to make themselves heard. The book explores a dynamic understanding of the processes of placemaking and offers insights on how students create 'student-friendly' places by re-appropriating spaces within schools and why they might behave in certain ways. Arguing that the wider implications of a failure in educational policy is detrimental to student retainment and success, the book will ultimately have ramifications across disciplines and classroom contexts in improving student engagement.

This book will be of interest to researchers, practitioners and policy makers working in the fields of the sociology of education, teaching and teacher education, educational change and reform more broadly. Those looking into behaviour management, youth studies, and education policy will also find this book of interest.
