Practical guidance for busy primary subject leaders
Finding it hard to know what to prioritise as subject lead, or how to work out which research is relevant and how it applies to your subject? The How to Lead It series brings you the go-to guides for primary subject leads in schools and trusts, covering Primary English, Science, History and Geography. These books are written by teachers, for teachers.
In them you will find:
- Clear summaries of relevant research and thinking around best practice
- Age-specific and inclusive classroom examples
- Case studies
- Reflective questions
- Suggestions for short PD sessions with colleagues
Everything in each book is applied thoughtfully to your specific subject area. These books enable busy subject leaders to make confident decisions for effective teaching and impactful curricula.
All the key elements of the primary science curriculum are explored, including curriculum planning, assessment, modelling, engagement, practical science, and dialogue, as well as support on how to approach research and a step-by-step guide to implementing changes in realistic and inclusive ways.
