Publisher: Routledge, 2004

This volume looks at the role of the teacher in the classroom, the dilemmas they face, what it means to be a professional in this context and the wider professional role of the teacher in secondary schools and colleges. Case studies are used to introduce the main context, linked to enquiry tasks which address: meanings of professionalism and their implications; professional approaches to teaching; power and relationships; inter-professional and inter-institutional issues.

Review:

'The Creative Professional is a book to recommend to all teaching at the upper end of the secondary schools. It is easy to read being full of practical advice and concrete examples. It should appeal to those in training or in a first post but also to those of us of greater experience who are willing to look critically at our teaching.' - Headlines
