This book is essential reading if you are considering making an application for secondary initial teacher education or preparing to begin your programme. It introduces you to a range of perspectives on teaching and teacher education and guides you through the application process to ensure you choose the training route that?s right for you to achieve a successful outcome.

In addition the text encourages you to reflect critically on your school experiences of learning and teaching and uses example of theory, research and practice to help you develop an informed stance on important themes within secondary education.  

The book gives a solid overview of the teaching profession, explaining key terms and providing opportunities for readers to reflect on their own position on many aspects
- Dr Jenney A.Wynn, Bishop Grosseteste University

The book is written in a clear and straightforward style that anyone can access. The jargon buster section at the front is very helpful for those not already in the know. I like the balance between information giving and reflective tasks to help the reader consider and analyse their own needs and wants
- Kim Jones, Alban Foundation SCITT

Well structured in toto and re: individual chapters. Very accessible. Of relevance to applicants and those who are already on the course. Comprehensive but concise. Excellent references for further reading. A really good addition to the bookshelves of anyone interesting in secondary teaching.
