Böcker av Elizabeth Holmes

The Primary Teacher's School Year Planner is a wellbeing, professional learning, inspiration and organisation tool for teachers.

Teacher wellbeing, or a lack of it, is a major concern for the teaching profession. Research shows that there is a recruitment and retention crisis with over a third of the school, FE and HE profession expecting to leave by 2020. This new text supports teachers to be aware of themselves and the pressures they face at work.

Deeply researched and deeply felt, this is a poetic reimagining of the first encounters of Europeans and Tahitians during the historic voyages of Captain James Cook. Examining both imperialism and exploration, Holmes illuminates the cultural exchanges, clashes, miscommunications, and friendships that developed during these European sojourns.
