Product Description

Review

A book that s full of humour, provocation and untarnished common sense - and which fights the all-important cause of good teachers and their pupils. --Geoff Barton, Headteacher, King Edward VI School

Phil Beadle always imbues the latest crazy top-down policy with timeless bottom-up good sense and wit. --John Dunford, Chair, Whole Education, Chair, WorldWide Volunteering, Chair, Chartered Institute of Educational Assessors

Beadle`s great strength lies in the fact that behind the ire and the feisty polemic lies a lot of thought and humility of his own, and plenty of humanity too. --Gerald Haigh, former teacher, head teacher and school governor and author

3.0 out of 5 stars Bad Education 6 Nov 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
A good read although tedious at times. It's obvious that Phil Beadle knows his stuff and comes across as a caring and fun educator. I would love to have had him as my English teacher! Well worth a read, if only to understand what goes on in the world of today's (or, rather, yesterday's) education.
