Testimonials for The Teaching Delusion:
‘My suspicion is that classroom teachers will read this and feel liberated, whereas many school leaders will find good reason to pause and reflect soberly on what they have been doing for the last few years... Bruce is brave enough to say what many of us are thinking, but few dare say out loud. I can only hope others will feel similarly emboldened by this book. I can see this book being a brilliant addition to reading groups, CPD libraries, and on-line discussions... Keep it near to hand; you'll find yourself revisiting it often.’ – Robin Macpherson, teacher and author, What Does This Look Like in the Classroom?
