Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
?An essential read - as entertaining as it is insightful - for anyone who cares about the way we treat young people ... Brilliant? OBSERVER
?Such a compelling read? TELEGRAPH
?Deeply absorbing ... Wright deserves the highest marks? FINANCIAL TIMES
School should equip children for adulthood. In reality, it means one thing: exams. Exam Nation sets out a better way ? and, crucially, shows us how we might get there.
Educationalist and Head of School Sammy Wright argues that grades, rankings and Ofsted reports all miss the point of school, and together they are undermining our whole approach to education. Rather than sorting pupils into winners and losers, we need to think differently about what our schools are actually for ? to see them as communities not factories ? if we are to give all young people the opportunities and future they deserve.
?Extraordinary ? The book education has been waiting for? LAURA MCINERNEY
?Persuasive ? He is clearly a superb teacher? SAM FREEDMAN, LITERARY REVIEW
?Thoughtful and considered? MICHAEL GOVE, THE TIMES
