Giles Barrow, in the first of two articles, highlights his concerns with the present educational system
In November last year, I gave ministry at my Local Meeting and talked of how I had, at the time, been overwhelmed in my work. I work in schools and local education services, providing coaching and training to teachers, school leaders and support staff. My background is as a teacher – initially in the secondary sector – but I spent most of my professional career in specialist provision and services, particularly regarding students excluded from school or at risk of custody. For the past decade or so I have been working independently on themes such as the relational aspects of teaching and learning, values-based leadership and developing school culture.
