Schoolmaster

This, THE SCHOOLMASTER, is possibly the most candid and frank book ever written on the subject of choosing teaching as a career. As the author states, “There is no profession which is so apt, if exercised faithfully and sympathetically and tenderly, to broaden the character and enlarge spirit.”

Designed as a text to support the teacher’s training courses, this book focuses on the key skills of teaching and educational administration. A practical focus is underpinned by theoretical perspectives and an account is taken of educational framework. The book helps readers to improve the development of teaching capabilities through understanding the factors at work in whole school context.
