Schools are filled with great teachers, but is great teaching taking place in every classroom, in every school? Bruce Robertson doesnt believe it is. Why not? This book argues that there are two reasons. Firstly, because there isnt a shared understanding of what makes great teaching. Secondly, because schools havent developed the strong professional learning culture necessary to drive the development of great teaching in every classroom. Through discussion of key messages from educational research, and drawing on a track record of success, this book explores how these barriers can be addressed, leading to transformations in teaching practice across classrooms and schools.

Bruce Robertson is the Rector of Berwickshire High School and author of The Teaching Delusion trilogy, published by John Catt Educational. As a chemistry teacher and senior leader, he has been working in education for almost 20 years. In recent years, Bruce has been in high demand as a consultant and conference presenter. He works closely with primary and secondary schools, keeping teaching and learning improvement at the centre of everything he does. Teachers and school leaders are consistent in their praise for Bruces passion, clarity and inspirational messages.
