This is the definitive guide to surviving and succeeding in teaching.

Hazel Bennett - who has herself combined a career in teaching with running a home, bringing up a family and post-graduate study - gives advice on issues as coping with a daunting amount of paperwork, an ever-increasing curriculum load, pressure to improve the school's position on the league tables, and a pupil population who are frequently more concerned about their rights than their education. A must-read for teachers everywhere.
