Chapters on inclusion, teacher identity and the wider school community consider key issues in teaching and learning today. This second edition is newly linked to the 2012 Teachers′ Standards and includes notes on the new National Curriculum. About the Transforming QTS Series This series reflects the new creative way schools are begining to teach, taking a fresh approach to supporting trainees as they work towards primary QTS.

There is value in this textbook for early career teachers working all over the UK despite the emphasis on the English systemFor the most part, the authors, all experienced teacher educators, have clearly understood the experience of student and trainee teachers and produced a book which underlines the importance of teacher values, research-based practice and continuous professional development. -- Susan McWhirr * Scottish Educational Review *
