Product reviews for Ticked Off

Checklists imposed on teachers in order to meet bureaucratic and/or political requirements are a persistent irritant for today's classroom professionals - but, as Harry Fletcher-Wood makes clear in this practical and immensely satisfying book, those we create for ourselves can have a hugely positive effect on our personal and professional lives. By distilling various aspects of teaching and learning into succinct manageable lists he demonstrates a simple and effective way to take the pressure off and ensure that none of the essential minutiae are missed as we strive to achieve our goals, even - and perhaps especially - if we are not by nature an 'organised' person. 

From planning an essay to preparing for difficult conversations, there are ready-made lists here for an impressive range of situations; plus sensible advice to help you devise your own.
