Product Description
This is a clear and concise guide to becoming an outstanding primary teacher in the true Ofsted meaning of the word. All of the time. Every lesson. This book contains lots of easy-to-introduce activities and techniques that will propel satisfactory and good lessons into the outstanding category - not just when being observed, but all the time. And the best news? This book tells you how to do it without spending lots more time planning, researching and preparing 'out of this world' lessons. All of the activities have been tried-and-tested in the classroom and are divided into three areas: ideas for embedding or preparing 'by this time tomorrow', 'by this time next month' and 'by this time next term' so you can choose the activity you have time for. Each chapter focuses on a perennial issue in teaching and in inspection, such as differentiation, working with your Teaching Assistant and Assessment for Learning. There are dozens of starters and plenaries and useful websites, and the author's own website offers resources to save you even more time. It is a must for all primary school teachers who want to become outstanding, not just for the inspectors but for every child they teach.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A must for all primary teachers and students,
By Lynne "the bag lady" (Milton Keynes) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to be an Outstanding Primary School Teacher (Outstanding Teaching) (Paperback)
I bought this for my daughter in her 2nd year as a student primary teacher. She has found the book an invaluable asset for her course and her placements. When on placement the teachers at the schools have ordered copies for themselves. A highly recommended book.

Outstanding! highly recommended.,
This review is from: How to be an Outstanding Primary School Teacher (Outstanding Teaching) (Paperback)
I purchased this book based on all of the other great reviews about it, and I was not disappointed. Being a student primary school teacher in my 2nd year, I wanted some good ideas to use on placements and a deeper understanding of what is required to ensure excellent practice. This book is very easy to get into, you could read it all the way through or dip in and out of bits. It contains loads of great ideas to use in the classroom, some of which I will definitely be trying on placement, including ideas for assessment for learning, starters, plenaries and group work. It also gives helpful advice on marking and creating effective learning objectives and success criteria when planning. Well worth buying, I can see this being dipped into for years to come.

fantastic and motivating,
This review is from: How to be an Outstanding Primary School Teacher (Outstanding Teaching) (Paperback)
I have been feeling very jaded and unenthusiastic about teaching just recently. This book has really fired my imagination and has encouraged me to really reflect on my teaching. It has great practical advice, in a straightforward and clear manner, giving details and information that one would like to know but are too afraid to ask in school in case you are considered an inadequate teacher!I will be implementing many of the strategies and ideas discussed in this great book. It is a must for every teacher.
