This lively selection brings together journalist and broadcaster
Libby Purvesa (TM) experiences as journalist, parent, governor and
former pupil of half a dozen assorted schools from Bangkok to
Tunbridge Wells, displaying her eclectic and provocative opinions
and ideas on teaching and learning. This collection of the best of
her writing in the Times Educational Supplement covers - sometimes
thoughtfully, sometimes mockingly - everything from national policy
to the eccentricities of headteachers and the limitations of IT.
Education professionals over the years have received her
outsider view with enthusiasm, laughter, inspiration and occasional
fury. From ministerial madness to the pitfalls of uniform and the
vagaries of teenagers, this book is dedicated to the amusement of a
cadre of professionals Libby once planned to join, until she lost
her nerve. It is dedicated, with thanks and admiration, to all
teachers.
