Trade Review'The recommended website pages are really useful where pupils have ready access to the internet...[The] filler activities...are good and I recommend them to all teachers whose lesson timing is anything less than split second!' Jocelyn Sumner, ACT website -- Jocelyn Sumner
"Supply teaching is a distinctive art. Stepping in and taking on a new class is one thing. Making sure of a quality outcome takes something more. Michael Parry provides a guide of how to achieve quality...They provide a thorough checklist of the things that need to be in place to ensure the cover runs smoothly. Thought-provoking chapters have something to say to all teachers...Both supply tecahers, and the schools they work with, will find this a useful book." -- Huw Thomas, Times Educational Supplement (Cymru)
