Opis

This book explores the tensions between developing the classroom you know will be best for the children you teach and external pressures such as Ofsted, Performance Management, Teacher Standards and the need to prepare children for SATs and other tests. It analyses the differences between professionalism and professionalisation and will give teachers the knowledge to challenge and contest competing agendas. Including scenarios and opportunities for reflection, the book will help you to consider the issues you face and how you should best respond to enable both you and your students to flourish.
