Rezensionen

'Having experience of developing two national curricula that offer innovation and enterprise, I know how important it is to support teachers in their new roles and educational approaches. Texts such as these can be pivotal, as they lay out the terrain, offer insights and share practical guidance. Working with children can be challenging, yet enthralling when you watch young minds evolve, and this book will definitely help to guide our educators towards learning transformation.'



Professor Emeritus Andy Penaluna, University of Wales Trinity Saint David, UK.



'This book encapsulates what is needed in the modern age of education - Educators that drive improvement through innovation and entrepreneurship. Davis uses his extensive knowledge and understanding in this field of study to give deliverable strategies to teachers and leaders in schools today and into the future.'

'In this wonderfully written book, James Davis outlines the necessary blueprint for conquering this exciting new frontier.'
