Editorial Reviews

'It is useful ,particularly, to the professional tutor who deals with Initial Teacher Training as it has direct relevance to this role ... it will also be of value to CPD co-ordinators and other senior staff in planning professional development days. It is designed, not to be read from cover to cover, but as source book.' - CPD Update
