Produktbeschreibung
This fully updated third edition of Becoming an Outstanding Primary School Teacher includes new material on blended learning, pedagogical leadership and teaching entrepreneurial skills. It offers comprehensive coverage of all the key topics that engage primary teachers, including planning, meeting curriculum demands, promoting positive behaviour, assessment, engaging with parents, research, and professional development. Throughout, Russell Grigg draws on theory, research, and case studies of classroom practice to discuss what it takes to become an outstanding primary teacher, making this essential reading for raising pupils' standards of achievement through high quality teaching.

How do primary teachers who excel in their work approach topics such as planning and assessment? What strategies do they use to inspire pupils when teaching English, Mathematics, Science, and other subjects? How do they keep on top of everything in managing workload and still get the best from pupils? These are the kinds of questions that this revised third edition addresses. It includes:

- more than sixty ground-breaking infographics to convey key points in a highly accessible way

- discussion of recent curriculum changes in the UK and the implications for high quality teaching

- tried-and-tested classroom strategies, points for reflection and further research to bridge theory and practice

- key concepts and international views on topics such as creativity, teachers' well-being, and assessment

- reflections on the lessons from the recent pandemic such as the need for a robust digital pedagogy

- extensive references for further research.

Becoming an Outstanding Primary School Teacher has been updated to reflect significant changes in the context within which primary teachers operate both in the educational system and broader society. Providing a complete guide to the notion and practices of outstanding teaching, this avital reference for trainee teachers, NQTs, and more experienced practitioners who aspire to excellence in their teaching.

Rezensionen
'Although there have been significant changes in schools across the world since the last publication, I believe the revised edition will be of considerable use not only to those aspiring to be outstanding teachers but to all teachers and senior leaders seeking to make the best possible provision for their students.'

'This is a well -respected work from an experienced educator and author, which is widely used on ITE and Education Studies courses. A new updated edition will be welcomed by course providers and students. Indications are that there is likely to be a growth in numbers on ITE courses resulting from the impact of COVID 19 on the economy and numbers on Education Studies courses continue to grow. The book also has wide international appeal.'

'this book will appeal to practitioners and trainees alike... every teacher wants to be the best they can be and money for CPD courses is limited so any resources which support teacher development are welcomed'

'I agree with the author's assessment of the need for an update to the 2nd edition of his book. Enough has changed, in UK education, since 2015, that an update would be beneficial, even if the fundamental structure and the content of the book remain unchanged.'

'The educational landscape has shifted over the last few years and this proposal puts the book's contents into a more modern framework. Language has also changed in education and terms used here are more up to date. Contemporary trends such as blended learning and entrepreneurial competences are incorporated, which should make the book relevant and easily usable for teachers.'
