All the Things They Never Told You About Teaching cover

Many teachers do not feel confident in their role, particularly as they are increasingly expected to address topics with their pupils that they feel ill-equipped to deal with. Co-authored by two highly experienced educators, All The Things They Never Told You About Teaching is an essential guide, supporting teachers in navigating those tricky, taboo subjects that sit outside of the national curriculum and may not have been fully explored during their teacher training.

Each chapter unpacks and addresses a range of ‘myths’ and ‘truths’ behind these subjects in an accessible manner, helping teachers to develop their understanding and facilitate compassionate conversations about these topics. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Mental health
  • Bullying
  • Neurodiversity
  • Gender diversity
  • Sex and relationships
  • Climate crisis

A must read for anyone working in education, this book guides educators through sensitively addressing difficult topics within the classroom, creating a more compassionate and supportive learning environment for all.
