Abstract

This research evaluated the potential of using role-play activities to improve the confidence of primary-phase trainee teachers to manage common low-level disruptive behaviours exhibited by pupils in the classroom during initial teacher training (ITT). The research concluded that role-play activities improved the confidence levels of trainees to manage common low-level disruptive behaviours and that trainees who participated in these activities were more confident at the end of training than those who did not. The primary benefit of the role-play activities was the opportunity for trainees to rehearse strategies and responses to low-level disruptive behaviours in a low-stakes context.
