Synopsis:

In an attempt to be in line with Government's endeavours to "modernise" both primary schooling and the primary teaching profession, this book provides critical and speculative perspectives on what has been, might be or should be achieved in teaching, learning, assessment, curriculum, management, professional development, special neds, early years, inspection and the teaching profession itself.
