This is an essential text for all primary trainees, covering the fundamental issues for learning and teaching in primary schools today. It motivates and challenges trainees at the same time as guiding them through the Standards for the Award of QTS. Chapters explore the major themes in teacher education, such as behaviour, communication and creativity, encouraging reflection on key questions and professional dilemmas. In addition, two key chapters provide specific advice to help trainees interpret and fully understand the standards, with strategies for successfully implementing them and demonstrating how each of the standards can be met.

A good resource book to have at hand in the University College library. Hayes offers such good common sense in everything he says that students new to the idea of learning and teaching can confidently springboard from this text into many others. -- Mr Mark-Andrew Dearden * drupal *
