Written by a headteacher with over 14 years' experience at the helm, The Headteacher's Handbook is the indispensable manual to understanding the role as both an instructional coach and community leader. Covering the nuts and bolts of primary headship from meeting your new team, communicating your vision and developing the curriculum to managing the budget, dealing with complaints and staff underperformance, and working with key stakeholders, Rae Snape presents invaluable advice, models, research, motivational quotes and self-reflection questions.
The book features examples from Rae's own experiences as well as contributions from school leaders who work in different contexts and who have overcome particular challenges, including Sir David Carter, Dr Kulvarn Atwal, Mary Myatt, Remi Atoyebi and Christalla Jamil. With a foreword by Professor Dame Alison Peacock, The Headteacher's Handbook is a compendium of all you need to excel as a primary headteacher.
