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.

""Seriously good in all respects: message, substance, structure, presentation, impact"" - Dan Silverman, Deputy Head, Alexandra Park School
Clear, brilliantly-researched and insightful, this book offers realistic, empathetic and targeted advice. I highly recommend it for teachers, pastoral teams and senior leaders alike. - Jaideep Barot, Head of Bristol Grammar School and Chair of HMC 2024-25
Do you have students who are worried about studying and exams? Perhaps this has made them withdraw and stop engaging or perhaps they are now working frantically and showing signs of panic. This book can help.
Drawing on up to date research as well as interviews with students and school staff across the UK, experienced secondary school teacher and education consultant Katharine Radice clearly explains what is happening in the teenage brain when students experience exam stress and walks you through the challenges and opportunities at each stage of the school journey, with specific chapters on KS3, KS4, KS5 and leaving school behind.
Whether you are a classroom teacher, middle leader or senior leader, this book has something for you: discover practical strategies covering a wide range of situations, from assemblies and parents' information evenings to verbal feedback on work and conversations with individual students.
