School absenteeism is a pervasive and difficult problem faced by mental health and school-based professionals. Even in mild forms, school absenteeism has been shown to be a significant risk factor for social, behavioral, and academic problems in middle childhood and adolescence, as well as psychiatric, economic, and occupational difficulties in adulthood. Problematic absenteeism has been examined for decades by professionals of many different disciplines, leading to a considerably fractured literature. Managing School Absenteeism at Multiple Tiers provides an integrative strategy for preventing, assessing, and addressing cases of youth with school absenteeism at multiple levels of severity and complexity. Dr. Christopher Kearney presents a multi-tiered framework based on prevention (Tier 1), early intervention for emerging cases (Tier 2), and more extensive intervention and systemic strategies for severe cases (Tier 3). Each tier is based on empirically supported strategies from the literature, and emphasis is placed on specific, implementable recommendations. This approach is based on a Response to Intervention model that has emerged as a powerful guide to prevention, assessment, and treatment of social and academic problems in schools. Response to Intervention is based upon tenets that parallel developments in the school absenteeism literature: (1) a proactive focus on early identification of learning and behavior problems and immediate, effective intervention, (2) universal, targeted, and intensive interventions, (3) frequent progress monitoring, (4) functional behavioral assessment, (5) empirically supported treatment procedures and protocols to reduce obstacles to academic achievement (including absenteeism), and (6) a team-based approach for implementation. This user-friendly, practical guide will be useful to mental health professionals, school administrators, guidance counselors, social workers and psychologists, as well as others who address kids with problematic absenteeism such as pediatricians and probation officers.

Teachers and governments all agree that if you wish to raise educational standards then it’s imperative to improve school attendance, and yet an average of around ten per cent of secondary pupils are missing school on a daily basis. Despite governments around the globe trying to address this situation, any improvements have been negligible and improvements in school attendance have been stubbornly hard to achieve. As an internationally recognised expert on this topic, Professor Ken Reid offers workable, practical solutions to help schools improve attendance and to reduce non-attendance and truancy at government level, school and local authority level, individual pupil level and at the family level. Underpinned by the very latest research, but expanded upon with an accessible, practitioner focus, the issues covered by this topical text include: The causes of non-attendance and truancy Successful interventions and the evidence from research Reflections on the attempts to find national solutions Implementing home-school solutions An agenda for the future Supporting throughout with case-studies and workable solutions to the most demanding of situations, this book will be essential reading for head teachers, deputy head teachers, teachers and any educational professional eager to raise standards for all.

The sixth Australasian edition of Organisational Behaviour: Core Concepts and Applications stands as an exemplary resource tailored for one-semester courses in Organisational Behaviour. With a deliberate focus on succinctness, relevance, and visual presentation, its fourteen chapters are meticulously crafted to captivate rather than inundate students. Throughout the text, a plethora of case studies and real-world instances delve into how organisations across the Australian, New Zealand, and Asian regions navigate pressing contemporary business concerns. These include the imperative of sustainable business practices, grappling with environmental impact and climate change, mitigating the gender pay gap, addressing employee stress, fostering resilience and work-life balance, adapting to the dynamics of millennials and an ageing workforce, enhancing employee retention strategies, and navigating the complexities of globalisation and outsourcing. Additionally, topics such as fostering diversity in the workplace, responding to the workforce transformations precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic, managing remote teams effectively, honing crisis management skills, and harnessing the potential of emerging technologies—particularly the ascendancy of generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools—are comprehensively explored. This latest edition amplifies its focus on sustainability, entrepreneurial and adaptive leadership, and the pivotal role of technology in catalysing digital transformation within organisational contexts. Complemented by the latest research in the field, this text provides a thorough analysis of contemporary organisational behaviour.
