This handbook ... should be kept to hand by teachers and by schools. I'd suggest it should be in every CPD leader's library ... What makes this book so great is that it is packed full of examples, diagrams and teaching tools. <br>CPD Update, April 2009

The fact that this is the third edition of Andrew Pollard's popular initial teacher education textbook...demonstrates that this is a book with a successful record of supporting the professional development of beginning teachers. The format of this new edition of the book includes not only the core textbook, but also integrated and complementary resources comprising a book of readings and a dedicated website hosting supplementary guidance. Whilst these additions to the core book are valuable, it is worth noting that the book remains, self-contained, and could still be used without reference to the additional materials and therefore remains a valuable text for beginning teachers in its own right. The content and structure have evolved in response to current practice and policies whilst still retaining a strong emphasis on what the authors refer to as the enduring educational issues. However, it is the clarity and fluency of the writing throughout that enables the authors to present to the reader a detailed and balanced consideration of all aspects of teachers' work, lives and positions in society, within a framework that makes clear links between classroom practice and research within current educational, political and social issues.
