The book outlines the test requirements and explains the essential basic subject knowledge. This new edition also includes a glossary, suggestions for further reading and hints boxes. Over 100 practice questions and answers and online test materials enable trainees to prepare to complete their test confidently and successfully.

I've just passed all three of the QTS skills tests today, and I know Iwould not have been able to do the literacy test without this little book. It has all you need to know, and is very accessible. The book explainsthe basics you will need to know, providing many examples and practicequestions. Highly recommended for any trainee teacher as the book willreinforce your existing skills and help you to gain new ones, giving youthe confidence to take, and pass, the QTS skills tests.

5.0 out of 5 stars A real help, 17 Dec 2003
This book covers all the areas of the test - spelling, punctuation, comprehension and grammar. Each section goes over the knowledge you will be tested on and provides questions similar to those that will appear in the test. There is a good answers section which provides extra explanation for the difficult questions.

All-in-all a very good purchase for any trainee teacher taking the test!
