This reflective reader looks at key themes and topical debates in secondary education using extracts and writings to exemplify different perspectives. It examines themes such as establishing teaching identity, approaches to teaching and learning and classroom practice. It gives advice on embedding assessment of pupil progress into teaching and how to use creativity as a way of teaching and learning. This text provides a model approach to the integration of theory and practice through learning from the analysis of research literature and applying this learning to the role of classroom teacher.
