It should be read by teachers, headteachers and all those with policy responsibilities for curriculum and school development at the secondary level. The Cambridge team are global leaders in research in education. Their findings merit very close scrutiny' - Bob Moon, Professor of Education, The Open University, UK

'This book sets out to address the question of why so many pupils in years 7-9 switch off and make insufficient progress in the core subjects. An overall conclusion is that the increased top-down emphasis (in the UK) on careerist motives to learn has had damaging effects; rather, pupils should learn to love learning for its own sake' - The Teacher Trainer Journal <hr color= GBP666666 size= 1px /> 'I approached this book with the view that it could be suitable for my students on the KS2/3 ITE routes, both undergraduate and post/professional graduate and that, additionally it could spark interest at M level: I wasn't disappointed!...I can strongly recommend it' - ESCalate <hr color= GBP666666 size= 1px /> 'This is a very important book.
