Foreword by Professor Rob Coe
Through a set of in-depth case studies, This Much I Know About Truly Great Secondary Teachers (and what we can learn from them) by John Tomsett brings to life how eleven outstanding secondary teachers cultivate great learning in their classrooms.
Covering a range of school types, social contexts, pupil ages and subjects, each detailed vignette is based on observing the teachers teach, and discussions with them, their colleagues and pupils. The conversations that form the heart of this book provide a picture of not just what these teachers do, but why they do it: the choices and adaptations they make, and the pedagogic and philosophical principles that guide them.
Each teacher is unique in the way they teach and in how they talk about teaching, but they also have some common behaviours and attitudes that make them truly great. John draws together these characteristics, summarising what we can all learn from their utter dedication, enthusiasm and commitment to preparing the next generation for a bright future.
Essential reading for all secondary school teachers, school leaders, teacher trainers and education researchers.

Recensioner i media
I have always believed our great profession is packed full of expert teachers. Indeed, as John Tomsett says in the introduction to Truly Great Secondary Teachers, there are 'thousands of them' in our classrooms up and down the country. In this book, the author has brilliantly embodied that expertise through a series of detailed teacher profiles; each one contains a strong balance of theory and practical ideas to use in the classroom, whilst being packed full of personal connections and anecdotes. The tips and reflections from serving practitioners are profound, and the evidence base behind the claim that these colleagues are 'truly great' is extensive. The author also recognises all of the truly great teachers who could have been included if there were enough pages. I am already looking forward to This Much I Know About Truly Great Secondary Teachers 2!Nigel Whittle
