and personal rewards that teaching brings. It is aimed at teachers
of all kinds; busy people working in complex environments with

learning and the debates that all teachers should be engaging in.

constitutes great teaching are drawn from his experiences as a
teacher and a school leader over the last 30 years, alongside
everything he has read and all the debates he's engaged with during
that time. An underlying theme of this book is that a career in

has learned that it is ok to change your mind. More than that -
