- Book Synopsis
- its been great being teached by you is a collection of stories from Andrew Macalpine's thirty-five years of teaching. Full of humour, horror and surprises, his stories make up an experience that will have been replicated by many teachers working in challenging inner city secondary schools. From a headteacher losing his temper when pipes have been pulled off a toilet wall causing flooding, to a teenage student stealing a London Transport double decker bus - and crashing it. Inspectors and inspections cause stress leading to a deliberately disabled fire alarm and an inspector's car stolen by a student. Another insists a door leading to a six-foot drop is kept unlocked. A young member of staff caught smoking is mistaken for a student. And many more…
- About The Author
- Andrew Macalpine worked for 35 years as a teacher and headteacher in some of London's most disadvantaged secondary schools. Following headship, he became an adviser to the government on secondary education in London. His book isn't about good management - the 90% that goes right. Rather the 10% that goes wrong!
