If you want to know how to run an Outstanding School then read this! This book is a memoir of an outspoken maverick Headteacher who did it his way. He was a Rock ‘n’ Roll Head who fought for his philosophy and lead his school to three consecutive Outstanding Ofsted inspections. He had a passion and a vision that permeated the fabric of the school and transformed it into one of the best schools in the country. He was a rebel who did not kow-tow to Ofsted or the Local Authority, who spent the early years of his teaching fighting for his beliefs in a traditional, hidebound school that was ...

In early 2020, because of COVID-19, many colleges and schools around the world closed, and many teachers, instructors, and faculty members had to learn how to teach online in a hurry. This book takes a step back and focuses on helping educators teach effective live online sessions with Zoom.

This book is about addressing the college-choosing problem. The rankings, metrics, analytics, college visits, and advice that we use today to help us make these decisions are out of step with the progress individual students are trying to make. They don't give students and families the information and context they need to make such a high-stakes decision about whether and where to get an education.

This book that will introduce you to the world of teaching English abroad and the roles that almost any native English speaker will be able to do.

Here Sitomer shares modern methods for keeping students engaged in the “boring” classroom. It’s understandable how school comes second to adolescents dealing with weighty issues in everyday life. That is why it’s necessary to teach teens how to get involved in their education and take responsibility for it.

I type "International Teaching Jobs" on the Google search line and find several sites, but I decide on one particularly useful site for which I pay a slight fee, and I find myself looking at a long list of teaching jobs all over the world. "Anything in Latin America," my wife asks, coming in to the room. "No, but here's one in the Congo." "Africa!?" "Yea, really. They want a calculus teacher! I can do that!" "Okay," Chantal says tentatively. "If you want." I hit the submit button and my resume is off across the world.

Teaching English as a foreign language is an amazing opportunity. It can whisk you away from the mundane and take you to places you’d never imagine you’d go to. It can fulfil you in all manner of ways as watch your students – and yourself – develop. And you can make a good living out of it too. But it can be a scary proposition if you don’t know anything about it. There are so many unknowns. Indeed many people give up on the idea simply because they don’t know where to start. This new guide to becoming an English teacher abroad deals with all of your questions and more - What is...

This book is an edited text with experts writing on these topics: literacy foundations, data-driven assessments, strategic partnerships, secondary literacy programs, DEI, leadership, planning and instructional strategies, and the content areas. It fills a gap in the literature on middle and secondary literacy and differentiation. Each chapter includes the latest research and takes a practical look at some of the essential questions facing educators today.

This book contains four essays written over 28 years ago while I was teaching writing and literature in the secondary school classroom. I do not wish to make apologies for the unpolished prose style of the essays or for arguments I once would have avidly defended, but today no longer stir a whole lot of zeal in me. Hopefully, a new generation of English teachers will find a few of the ideas contained in the essays of some value today.

A Headteacher's story. A candid behind the scenes expose of what it takes to run an outstanding secondary school. Packed with anecdotes, insights and tales. The philosophy of what makes a 'good' education. How to open young minds, turn on creativity and inspire. What education really should be - mind expanding and fun!

This book is about my experiences in schools (and now academies which were formerly schools but run differently), as well as different teachers I have worked with, and how this all impacts the pupils we teach. It is an honest account revealing what it is like to be an aspirational teacher, and the difficulties we really find in this profession, with unprofessionalism often rife, senior leaders not in control and pupil behaviour varying from excellent to dangerous and often a challenge to manage. All of this in schools that parents hold in high esteem.

We often talk about the challenges of teacher recruitment and retention, about new initiatives and political landscapes, but day in, day out, teachers and schools are delivering exceptional teaching, and most of it is invisible. Ross uncovers, celebrates, and disseminates best practice in teaching. This is supported by case studies and research undertaken by Ross in 10 primary and secondary schools across Great Britain, including a pupil referral unit and private, state and grammar schools, as well as explanations from influential educationalists as to why and how these ideas work.

This book chronicles the second, third and fourth years of these adventures, including the day-to-day life of a teacher at The American School of Kinshasa from 2007-2009 who deals with a marginal infrastructure while facing the everyday challenges of living in a war-torn third-world country, and has some great adventures in South Africa, Kenya, Ghana, Uganda and Zanzibar.

Gerade eben war alles perfekt. Die Schüler sind konzentriert und aufmerksam, der gut vorbereitete Unterricht fließt fast wie von selbst und so könnte es immer weitergehen. Tut es aber nicht, denn im Klassenzimmer nebenan wird bekannt, dass der Englisch-Test ausfällt, der Kollege ist krank. Drüben bricht die Hölle los. Vor Freude wird geschrien, Stühle krachen auf den Boden. Dahin ist der perfekte Flow in Ihrer Klasse, die Schüler sind abgelenkt, machen Bemerkungen, werden unruhig. Was jetzt?
