A book full of tips, insights and practical approaches pooled from little-known educators
with big ideas and all geared towards making a difference for your pupils in your setting.
When tiny voices talk, three amazing things happen: they share surprising ideas and
insights; they realise they are not so tiny; and they empower other tiny voices to talk too.
Drawing on the winning formula of her Tiny Voice Talks podcasts, Toria Bono has
compiled a great resource full of top tips and actionable advice from a range of tiny
voices across the educational spectrum. The assembled voices speak on a broad range of
topics relating to education and learner development – from mentoring, metacognitive
skills and period education, to trauma-informed practice, nurturing curious learners and
fi nding fl ow in the classroom.
But above all, this book is a call to action for all those in our schools who have yet to fi nd
their voice to fi nd it – and use it. There are big people with big voices (and big egos) in
education, yet they are the minority. The majority consists of great people just getting on
with doing great things – more often than not with people, not data, at the heart of their
practice. This book inspires such people to fi nd and use their voice; and when tiny voices
talk to tiny voices, everyone wins.
Features and benefi ts:
• Presents the contributors’ ideas concerning the ins and outs of teaching, inclusion,
and professional and personal development – and shares their stories from the
world of education.
• Reinforces the message that if teachers are empowered to use their voice, then they
are more likely to empower young people to use theirs too.
• Offers a practical guide for situations that teachers may face/be facing and how they
can be navigated within the realities of their day-to-day jobs in a variety of settings.

Toria Bono is a classroom teacher who has worked in a variety of educational roles over the
past 20 years. Toria is passionate about helping those involved in education to fi nd their voice.
She believes that when educators listen to and learn from one another, the young people in
our nurseries, schools and colleges benefi t from the collective knowledge and wisdom shared.
