Sue Cowley has done a tremendous job. This book is comprehensive,
balanced, eminently sensible and written with Sue's customary flair
and warmth. It emphasises that effective differentiation is as much
about relationships, awareness and understanding of each individual
learner as it is about grand strategies. Sue offers numerous
practical suggestions for how this understanding can be built and
successful learning secured. -- Jill Berry, leadership consultant

Differentiation is not just a word; it's being a thoughtful and
reactive teacher and making evidence-based, rational decisions. Sue
Cowley manages to develop practical ideas, rooted in classroom
reality, that stimulate thinking about children and their needs in
an investigative process of constant reflection and refinement. --

The book demonstrates how teachers already differentiate much of
the time, in subtle and creative ways - maybe even without knowing
it. Sue Cowley shows that we need to understand, acknowledge and
celebrate the variety of approaches that teachers already use to
differentiate, as well as helping them to develop additional
strategies. -- Parents in Touch
...it prompts thought; it asks great questions; it offers ways to
implement strategies, useful to the NQT and senior leader alike. --

What a magical little book. Teaching student teachers how to
differentiate is so hard because it is just good teaching! This
book breaks these areas of good teaching down and offers snippets
of useful advice. Another one for the recommended reading list. --
