Foreword
Foreword
Across the world, educators are rethinking how discipline works in schools. This issue of Excellent Educator brings together eight studies that explore new ways to guide student behavior—ways that are fair, respectful, and rooted in understanding. From South Africa to Japan, Nigeria to the United States, these stories show how teachers and leaders are moving beyond punishment. They are using coaching, routines, cultural awareness, and student voice to build stronger, more inclusive classrooms.
The articles in this issue offer practical ideas and global insights. Some focus on teacher training and leadership, while others highlight the power of restorative practices, early intervention, and community support. Together, they show that discipline is not just about rules—it’s about relationships, trust, and creating spaces where all students can learn and grow. We hope this collection inspires reflection, conversation, and action in schools everywhere.
