Publisher's Synopsis

Another from Jackie Beere's 'Perfect' stable, this simple but effective little book is designed to help bring the best out of all English departments during that all-important Ofsted visit. It is written by David Didau, a highly effective and innovative head of English at a school where Independent Thinking is a trustee. He has been instrumental in overseeing an enviable rise in A* to C results over the last few years to 84% in 2011.

His inspirational little book is packed full of ideas, strategies and simple yet effective innovations. This book is an essential tool in the toolkit of every English department - and not just for the inspection either! With topics including assessment for learning, progress, the learning environment and planning outstanding lessons, this is the book for every English teacher's desk drawer.

About the Publisher

Independent Thinking Press

Since setting up Independent Thinking nearly 20 years ago, I have seen it become a leading voice in helping creative teachers in innovative schools think for themselves. At a time when education is in danger of being turned into the process by which chains of schools churn out young people with grades but little else, we need to take back the teaching profession and spread the message that educating children to think for themselves is what a real education is all about. (Do that and the grades will come anyway I can assure you.) Under the Independent Thinking banner, I am proud to have brought together a unique collection of educational mavericks who make a genuine difference in schools across the UK and further afield. The Independent Thinking Press is now their voice in print.
