A Beginner's Guide to Mantle of the Expert: A Transformative Approach to Education

Review - "This is the book I wish I had had when I was starting out as a teacher. And even now, twenty-one years on, I know it's one I'll return to again and again. Tim doesn't just tell us - in simple, clear and glorious detail - the what and how of Mantle of the Expert. But he delves beautifully and sensitively into the why. He shows us the importance of perspective in building children's capacities for acting with grace, responsibility and thoughtfulness. He examines the careful balance between freedom and rigour that the pedagogy offers. He gives clear and engaging examples from his own practice and ultimately, he reminds us that to be a teacher is to be a guide into a future in which children are equipped with the power to build a better world." - Debra Kidd
