Whether you’re already in command of a classroom, or are just starting out as a student teacher, this original book based on Glenise Borthwick's 18 years of teaching experience will help you cope with pupils, parents and the everlasting pile of marking.

Alternately practical, wise and funny, Top Tips for Teachers will guide you through those career defining moments: parents evenings, negotiating the staffroom, and help you preserve your dignity when all you want to do is hurl chalk at the board.

Teaching can, of course, be a rewarding vocation allowing you to get to know your pupils and guide them into their future. This book will keep you organised, calm and motivated until the summer holidays, allowing you to concentrate on those more rewarding moments. With witty illustrations by Bob Dewar, one of the UK’s top satirical artists.
