This new book on school attendance and behaviour includes contributions on some of the latest research and thinking from around the world. Some of the interesting, wide-ranging, and often unique topics covered include: truancy and well-being, disaffection, pupil absenteeism, social mediation, aggression in primary schools, bullying, emotional barriers to learning, behaviour management training, exclusion, reintegration, and ethnic diversity. The book should prove both helpful and useful for a wide range of professionals, students, and academics, across a range of educational, care, and social policy disciplines. This book was published as a special issue of Educational Studies.
