Recenzje

'An extraordinary book. It makes those 'Unseen Children' visible to us all with incisive arguments, an array of evidence, along with compelling personal stories. It offers anyone with an interest in education a comprehensive account of the challenges faced by so many children in our education system. And yet, it manages to remain hopeful and practical. It is both a call to arms and a helping hand to everyone in education who wants to address the disadvantage gap and make 'Unseen Children' seen, heard and supported to thrive.'

-- Alex Quigley, the Education Endowment Foundation and author of 'Closing the Reading Gap'
