'Successful Teaching 14-19 offers a comprehensive introduction to the intricacies of teaching. It covers not only the skills and habits needed by contemporary teachers, but also the theoretical and reflective context within which they operate. While much of what is written will be useful to any teacher, there is a welcome focus on the 14-19 agenda' - Tony Lawson, Senior Lecturer, University of Leicester
This book offers no nonsense insights into some of the issues that secondary school teachers have to deal with in their day-to-day practice, and offers scope for teachers to reflect on their practice too. It will be useful for both new teachers and those wishing to develop their professional understanding of their work.
Highly recommended for new teachers in FE/Secondary schools. I found the theory really interesting, and have made notes! Lots of helpful information.
Perfect part of a series of books for ITE Excellent for my Secondary trainees to think about how practice and pedagogy work hand in hand
This book supports learners who are completing the Award in Education, Diploma in Education and Training, and any teacher training course /qualification. Some very good practical support in Chapter 15 - classroom ideas that really work. Professionalism might need reviewing in their next edition as the Professional Standards are now with the ETF, in FE and skills sector. Good background research on policies to support reforms. Behaviour management and theory condensed and easy to access and understand.
Good book
Although I was expecting a more specialist slant to this text, given the title, this is a solidly useful general teaching handbook which I will gladly add to my list of recommended general texts for my initial trainee teachers. It is aimed for the Level 5/PGCE/Cert Ed level. The book is very practical, and in particular the classroom ideas chapter is full of useful ideas for engaging learners.
This book is recommended to students undertaking a teacher traing course. However as education standards are changing with new frameworks and government strategies and the ever looming OFSTEAD inspection, this book provides recent studies to examine and strategies to keep abreast of current changes in education.

Easy to read and relevant text.
Excellent classroom resource, particularly useful for P.G.C.E. students.
A useful text that supports parts of the first year of teacher training courses.The practical examples and activates are very useful for discussion.It is written in a user friendly style which students on their first year like.
This is a great book for helping lecturers in further education identify and understand theories relevant to their class groups. There are also some good examples of the theories and case studies to help.
This book will be very useful for all teaching staff involved with this age group.
Good for staff who deal with this age group as a large part of their teaching committment
A useful text for those teaching this age group. Case studies and further work useful for class exercises and follow up work.
I really enjoyed this book in the way it was written, examples and case studies that can be applied for learners on CTLLS and DTLLS programmes
Informative and interesting, its constantly being passed around my colleagues!!
Please see feedback posted on this text previosuly for PTLLS course.
