G. R. BARRELL AND J. A. PARTINGTON - Teachers and the Law

London England, Methuen & Co., 1985. Sixth Edition, Binding: Softcover, Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall 0416395309 Softcover This sixth edition has been revised and updated to include recent changes in education law, with revised chapters covering health and safety at work and employment protection and discrimination. The first part of the book deals with the organization of education in England and Wales, conditions of service, salaries and superannuation. The second part covers a wide range, including such matters as routine administration, school attendance, religious education, accidents and negligence, punishment, extraneous duties, school journeys, copyright, and the confidential side of a teacher's work. There is also a chapter on the work of the juvenile courts. While it will be of particular value to newly appointed heads, all teachers - from students to the most experienced - will find this book a mine of useful information not obtainable elsewhere in a single volume. It will also be of considerable interest to governors and, indeed, all who are concerned in any way with the work of schools. Previous owners name and address on inside cover.
