Vulnerable and disaffected children need understanding and nurture rather than reactive management, which can easily exacerbate their difficulties, leaving them unheard and defensive, and even undermine teacher confidence and effectiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eUnderstanding, Nurturing and Working Effectively with Vulnerable Children in Schools \u003c\/i\u003eoffers a comprehensive and accessible exploration of the difficulties faced by teachers and schools from at-risk and disaffected children, including repeated trauma and insecure attachment patterns.
