About the Book

This must-read guide to being a primary headteacher is filled with practical guidance, tips and advice on all aspects of headship to support and inspire new, current and aspiring headteachers. Written by a headteacher with over 14 years' experience at the helm, The Headteacher's Handbook is the indispensable manual to understanding the role as both an instructional coach and community leader. With a kind and compassionate tone, Rae Snape presents invaluable advice, models, research, motivational quotes and self-reflection questions on a wealth of topics. This includes: - developing and communicating the vision for your school - building a staff team - handling an Ofsted inspection - ensuring inclusion, equality and diversity in your setting - curriculum and assessment design - managing the day-to-day – the finances, health and safety, behaviour and everything in-between! The book features examples from Rae's own experiences as well as contributions from some of the most influential and forward-thinking school leaders today, including Dr Kulvarn Atwal, Mary Myatt, Remi Atoyebi, Paul Dix and Christalla Jamil. Also featuring a foreword by Professor Dame Alison Peacock, CEO of the Chartered College of Teaching, and Sir David Carter's popular framework First 100 Days in Headship, The Headteacher's Handbook is a compendium of all you need to excel as a headteacher.

Review :
This is a comprehensive guide which covers every aspect of taking on the headteacher role. It is at once practical, honest, insightful and, probably most importantly, incredibly useful. If you're new to headship, or planning a move into the role, this is a must-read book. If you are aspiring to primary headship or have just been appointed, then this book is your must-read guide to being an outstanding leader of your school. This collection of advice, reflections, warnings and exhortations provides an indispensable handbook not just for the new headteacher but as a refresh for those who have served a while. And in the best headteacher tradition, the author tells some compelling stories too. Rae explores some of the more nuanced aspects of the job, guiding the reader through the maze of legal requirements and responsibilities.
