Product reviews for Botheredness®

Professor Tim O’BrienProfessor of Psychology and Human Development, UCL, Institute of Education, London


Botheredness is an illuminative, practical and uplifting book. In it Hywel describes how – through high expectations – children and young people can be ‘protected into learning’ so that they can become invested in what they learn and succeed relative to their individual starting point. Leaders of learning can enable this to happen by being warm, principled, alert, optimistic, authentic and compassionate.

Let’s say you want to develop your art and craft and have some laughs along the way. Let’s say you want to feed your soul and, maybe, feed Colin the lion too. Let’s say you want to open a treasure chest that contains the experiences, stories and creative ideas of a travelling teacher. Then Botheredness is the book for you. Read it and you will be a better botheredness builder.
