About the Book Several months ago, having knocked out one sports story too many, I decided it was time for a change. It was time to quit the world of online journalism, time to stock up on woolly sweaters from M&S and time to retrain as a primary school teacher .... On arrival, I was taken on a school tour of such overwhelming size that I'd started to forget the beginning even before we were half way around. However, I had at least learnt the whereabouts of the essentials and, should it ever get a bit too much, the exit. So begins The Inside Guide to Training as a Teacher. Engagingly written, witty and non-conformist, Jon Barbuti gets to the heart of what it is really like to be a trainee teacher. Covering issues as diverse as staff meetings, INSET days, behaviour management and essay writing, this guide will provide advice and inspiration for new teachers everywhere.
