Opis

It is becoming clear to educational managers that successful schools are schools which take pastoral care seriously and train their managers in pastoral leadership. Written in a reader-friendly style, this practical guide surveys all aspects of the pastoral leader's role. It provides managers and all teachers who have a pastoral responsibility with real, step-by-step guidance towards effectiveness.

Recenzje

'[This book] is a welcome contribution in a neglected area. The author's opening case study, of the Year Head who is run so ragged that she ends up cancelling an important meeting to supervise a detention for two students, will ring many bells. It's a strong invitation to read on and discover that there are more efficient ways of working.' - Gerald Haigh, Times Educational Supplement
