'Marking and feedback, the poisoned chalice for all teachers, is tackled thoughtfully throughout this book with simple, efficient and valuable strategies that any subject teacher, primary or secondary can use. It's a blinder by Findlater and a text I will have by my side each time the marking pile starts to stack up!'
