Biography
John Howson
'I think there is a need for such a book. Increasingly teachers...lack a clear career path.It is practical, using the question and answer technique. The style of writing is easy to read.' - T. Day, Headteacher, Greenfields Primary School, Watford
'There isn't much on teacher career planning and there should be so this plugs a big gap. This book is devoted to the topic and very detailed. The author is well known for the advice he's been giving in the TES.' - Sara Bubb, Institute of Education, TES columnist
