The Perfect (Ofsted) English Lesson Reviews

"The techniques and strategies that you will read in this book will help teachers of English reflect on what really matters when they teach the subject." David Carter, Executive Principal, Cabot Learning Federation "Provides a range of ideas and approaches that aren't just outstanding against some Ofsted ticklist, but genuinely outstanding." Geoff Barton, Headteacher, King Edward VI School "This book is an encouraging reminder that, with hard work, effort and an understanding of the fundamental pedagogies of our classrooms, we too can achieve perfection in our lessons." Lisa-Jane Ashes, (AST), Author and Creator of Reflections of a Learning Geek "If you are a teacher - not just an English teacher - you need to read this book." Dave Rees, Principal of Erne Integrated College "There's a wealth of experience within these pages, but also love, joy, and compassion from a classroom practitioner on whom we should all model ourselves." Kenny Pieper, English teacher in a Scottish Secondary School "I'd recommend this book heartily to every teacher (NOT just English teachers) and encourage them to try out the tips within. They work - I know - I've tried many myself to great effect!" David Doherty, Assistant Principal & Teacher of English, Cowes Enterprise College

Since then he has spoken at various national conferences, has directly influenced Ofsted and has worked with the Department for Education to consider ways in which teachers' workload could be reduced. He is the author of the hugely successful titles The Secret of Literacy, in which he urges teachers to 'make the implicit explicit', and What If Everything You Knew About Education Was Wrong?, in which he turns his attention to the myriad unexamined assumptions that underlie education and explores how schools might realign their practices with how children actually learn.
