Building not only the authors’ many years of personal experience, the guide draws on their own research and that of many other leaders in this field to create a superbly grounded yet optimistic set of ideas, tips and reflection points. I love how the authors challenge so many orthodoxies, such as flipping the concept of the \"hard-to-reach family\" into the \"hard-to-reach school\". Throughout the book is an implicit thread that will be familiar to those versed in the principles and power of effective coaching, exploring important topics such as building relationships, listening and getting the right tone and balance in all communication. This is a refreshing, accessible and eminently practical guide in an often-neglected area that will be invaluable for teachers and leaders at all levels within schools. Highly recommend!\" - Andy Buck, best-selling author, speaker, trainer and coach. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56304066199925,"sku":"9781529796322","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781529796322_8e7ad1c4-1753-456c-9ac9-8dd4a14981ce.jpg?v=1786034335"},{"product_id":"9781529730579","title":"A Little Guide for Teachers: Teacher Wellbeing and Self-care","description":"\u003cp\u003eTeachers can’t teach effectively if they’re demotivated and exhausted; and they shouldn’t they have to! \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eA Little Guide for Teachers: Teacher Wellbeing and Self-Care\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e explains how wellbeing is essential to effective teaching, and gives teachers practical tools to take back control of the classroom.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLittle Guide for Teachers \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eseries is little in size but BIG on all the support and inspiration you need to navigate your day to day life as a teacher.\u003c\/p\u003e      \u003cp\u003e·       Authored by experts in the field\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003e·       Easy to dip in-and-out of\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003e·       Interactive activities encourage you to write into the book and make it your own\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003e·       Fun engaging illustrations throughout\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003e·       Read in an afternoon or take as long as you like with it!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56312598167925,"sku":"9781529730579","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781529730579_37146ea9-5031-4485-a91a-89e304fe15ee.jpg?v=1786023769"},{"product_id":"9781529681109","title":"Real Lives of Teachers","description":"Educator Emma Kell explores the \u003cem\u003eReal Lives of Teachers today\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book takes an inspirational and candid look at teaching today.  It delives into the political and societal challenges faced by schools and teachers and empowers teachers to find their own way through. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSchools are unique workplaces and teaching is a unique profession.  There are highs and lows, challenges and joys - this book opens up a conversation about the range of expereinces that teachers have.  It offers practical strategies, supporting teachers to overcome barriers and cherish their own wellbeing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough real-life case studies and research-based ideas, this book supports educators to navigate the realities of their profession.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56369003037045,"sku":"9781529681109","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781529681109_6aed8e2d-ff69-40cc-a3eb-9b8672b9fc69.jpg?v=1786023632"}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/collections\/author-emma-kell.oembed","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
