This book is full of simple-to-implement tips that will help you to connect with learners as well as brilliant nuggets that challenge deep reflection. I'd recommend engaging with these tips for all teachers, whether new to the profession, a seasoned classroom practitioner or a member of the leadership team. * David Rogers, Assistant Head, @davidErogers * Within days of putting [this book] in our staff library I needed to buy more copies due to staff demand. Whether you consider yourself a 'prog', 'trad' or just a teacher there is loads to think about in this book. My message about '100 Ideas' is simple; buy it, read it and try things. * Vic Goddard, Principal of Passmores Academy, @vicgoddard * The book is not aimed at any particular secondary school curriculum subject, but for the art of teaching in any subject, with many ideas easily adaptable for any classroom. Get a copy, and just place it within the staff room, encouraging colleagues to dip in and out every now and then. There is something for everybody, with many ideas shared not being revolutionary, yet motivating and encouraging. * UKEdChat *
