Recenzii
"Andrew Hampton has crafted a book that does exactly what it says on the cover. He has synthesised his years of Headship experience, knowledge and skill into this accessible yet erudite text. Highly recommended for those aspiring to Headship and those already there.”
Dr David Paterson, Assistant Head
“A great read whether you are new to headship or have been in headship for some time. Andrew’s thoughts make you reflect and challenge your own practice.”
Emma Stanhope, Vice Principal
“Clear, well-written and frank, Andrew Hampton’s new book provokes reflection and constructive debate, both of which are extremely useful.”
Dr Jill Berry, Consultant in Educational Leadership
“This easy-to-read guide has helped me step into the shoes of a new headteacher, offering a fresh perspective on leading and guiding a team of staff and children. Its honest and realistic view is incredibly refreshing, with a touch of humour that makes it even more engaging. A must-read for SLT members and any aspiring headteacher.”
Azmina Hansraj, Deputy Headteacher
“As an experienced Deputy Head and Designated Safeguarding Lead, I thought I knew what it took to run a school but after reading this book I now realise there is so much more that goes on behind the scenes. If you are aspiring to become a member of SLT or a Head at some point in your career I strongly suggest you read this book.”
Jane Banks, former Deputy Head
“As a serving Headteacher and someone who appreciates advice that is embedded in research and referenced to ‘gurus’, I loved this book. Once I had started, I couldn’t put it down as I wanted to find out more - especially to find out if there were any ‘quick wins’ I could employ. (Spoiler alert – there are!)”
