In this book, Phil Revell takes a hard look at the teaching profession. Where do teachers come from--and why do so many abandon their career after a few years in the job? What kind of teachers do we want in our schools and what kind of profession are today's wannabe teachers entering? Is it a profession at all? Revell writes with clarity of style and an understanding that comes from having worked in schools for nearly twenty years. His analysis will shock some teachers and educationalists, but parents, teachers and policymakers will be struck by the power and the logic of the argument he puts forward. The Professionals is the result of a year's research, during which the author followed the progress of over 50 students through their teacher training and spoke to teachers, teacher trainers, and government agencies. The book will be essential reading for policymakers, teacher educators, and senior management in schools.
