Teachers Matter PDF
by Christopher Day, Pam Sammons, Gordon Stobart, Alison Kington, Qing Gu
Description
Teachers Matter offers the most definitive portrait of teachers lives and work to date. At a time when teaching standards are high on the political and social agenda, the quality and commitment of teaching staff is seen as paramount and they are viewed as pivotal to the economic and social well being of society. But:
- What are the influences that help or hinder teachers commitment?
- Is there an association between commitment and pupil attainment?
- Why are teachers identities important?
- What are teachers needs and concerns in different professional life phases?
- Does school context count?
The book addresses issues such as the importance of career development, the relationships between school leadership, culture and teachers lives, maintaining a work-life balance, identity and well-being and the connection between commitment, resilience and effectiveness in the classroom.
Original and highly relevant, Teachers Matter is invaluable reading for teachers, head teachers, researchers and teacher educators.
