A range of practical suggestions designed to make learning more effective>
A thoroughly researched one-stop resource for all those with responsibility for classes that contain gifted and talented students at both primary and secondary level.
Improving teaching is the key to genuine and sustainable school improvement. Improvement involves persuading teachers to change and develop their practice but, as anyone who has ever tried will testify, this is far from easy. The focus of Tweak to Transform is what head teachers and school leaders can do to manage the change process and improve the quality of teaching in a school. Essentially, Tweak to Transform is a practical handbook that seeks to address three questions. What do we know about change? What do we know about learning? What do we know about leading and managing the improvement process? While there is no single successful recipe for improving teaching in a school, this book attempts to establish some key principles. The result is a collection of thoughts, activities strategies and models that have been developed and successfully implemented in a wide range of schools. >
Based on sound research and experience from Gary Wilson, one of the UK's leading authorities on boys' achievements, this book provides a practical toolkit of proven strategies that enable teachers to raise boys' achievement across all age boundaries. It is a solid introduction to why boys underachieve at school that will enable all teachers to identify the main problems and plan a way forward.
