Thank you Marc. This is turning into quite a series @JohnCattEd . Looking forward to yours Marc!
My friend and colleague and fabulous educator @KateFrood has just published this excellent, timely book @JohnCattEd - I think it will be invaluable for helping teachers & pupils to flourish in the classroom. Kate’s track record with primary leadership (esp maths) is exemplary.
