Rezensionen

"Whether you are a teacher or a leader in schools, colleges or universities or supporting educators in other ways, Kate's advice will enable you to be clear about your ambition and how to realise it."

Vivienne Porritt OBE Co-founder and Global Strategic Leader of WomenEd

"Kate's book which combines personal reflections, case studies, and spotlights is a must-read for women (and most importantly men) working in education. The powerful stories and the very practical strategies on topics ranging from delivering CPD to applying for jobs to innovating are valuable and can help women reflect on their current and future careers regardless of the stage they are currently in. We need books which celebrate women in education, and Kate's book is a great contribution to the field."

Dr Iro Konstantinou Head of Research and Impact, Tony Little Centre, Eton College

"This book is a powerful message of hope and solidarity. Its call for women to support each other is at once timely and timeless, and its vision of a more inclusive and equitable sector is not only inspiring but, as it shows, ultimately achievable."

Emma Cate Stokes, Schools Week
