Rachel Macfarlane, Lead Adviser for Underserved Learners, HFL Education and author of Obstetrics for Schools and Unity In Diversity
A compelling and important read. The justifiable anger that the authors feel about the inequities of our society and education system fizzes through the book. As they say, ‘We need to do more; we need to take affirmative action’. And The Working Classroom gives the educator scores of practical and inspiring ideas about what they can do to effect change, with uplifting case studies, planning templates, reflective questions and model lesson plans. This book is well researched, comprehensive, readable and well-timed. A must-read!
