With new material on inclusion, SEN, legal issues, ICT and teaching assistants, this new edition remains essential reading for all student teachers on initial teacher training courses at the primary level.

'It is so refreshing to read a book about primary teaching that takes the child, and learning and teaching as its focal pointsSo often books in this area are so impersonal with their focus on subjects and raising standards.' - Paul Lunn, Northumbria University, UK
