Success in education is not just about grades. It is seen in the quiet child who finds their voice, the struggling pupil who keeps going, and the teacher who rediscovers their passion. These are the real achievements of a school.

Finally getting around to reading this - published in 1985, around the time that the landmark documentary series The Dragon Has Two Tongues was released (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dra...). Thanks to Greg Williams for the copy! 1/2

If you're new to history teaching, I can't tell you how much you need this webinar series! The forthcoming webinar (10 Oct) is the perfect antidote to GCSE-led 'source work' that has damaged the integrity, rigour & fun of teaching evidential thinking in history. www.history.org.uk/secondary/ca...
