Reviews

As head teachers become ever more deeply buried under bureaucracy, deputy heads have assumed a key role in the day-to-day running of schools. Yet there is little written specifically for or about them. Trevor Kerry has many years of experience as teacher, researcher, trainer and manager. This is a valuable, well-written book on the craft of an important but neglected constituency.'

Professor Ted Wragg, University of Exeter
