    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:

    Finding it hard to know what to prioritise as subject lead or how to work out which research is relevant and how it applies to your subject? The How to Lead It series are the go-to guides for primary subject leads in schools and trusts. In them you will find:
    - clear summaries of relevant research and thinking around best practice
    - age-specific and inclusive classroom examples
    - case studies
    - reflective questions
    - suggestions for short PD sessions with colleagues

    Everything in the book is applied thoughtfully to your specific subject area. These books enable busy subject leaders to confidently make good decisions for effective teaching and impactful curricula.

    All the key elements of the primary science curriculum are explored including curriculum planning, assessment, modelling, engagement, practical science and dialogue as well as support on how to approach research and a step-by-step guide to implementing changes in realistic and inclusive ways.
