'This book sets out to address the question of why so many pupils in years 7-9 "switch off" and make insufficient progress in the core subjects. An overall conclusion is that the increased top-down emphasis (in the UK) on careerist motives to learn has had damaging effects; rather, pupils should learn to love learning for its own sake' - The Teacher Trainer Journal
An excellent core text for students wishing to work in a secondary setting. Particularly good chapters exploring co operative learning and improving teacher pupil communication.
Interesting book, which highlights some pertinent issues in education right now and also addresses the attainment dip in some pupils.
