Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Both a memoir and manifesto for education reform . . . chronicles [Cummins’s] remarkable career as a teacher, headmaster, and school founder.” —Kirkus Reviews In this entertaining and inspiring memoir, renowned educator Paul Cummins candidly shares his journey from privileged kid and ivory-tower scholar to hands-on progressive educator, working to achieve social justice through education for all youth: from children of celebrities to foster and incarcerated youth and those facing sometimes unimaginable circumstantial hurdles to education and accomplishment—proving time and again that all children can succeed given appropriate support. Confessions of a Headmaster is “the story of the birth of the kind of open, enlightened, diverse education we all take for granted today, told in a warm and engaging way by the visionary in our midst who made it happen” (Victoria Shorr, cofounder of the Archer School for Girls and of the Pine Ridge Girls’ School). “The story of a man who brought the romance back into teaching at a time when the field of education is a field of constant national controversy, and our most popular books have titles with militarist references, such as The Teacher Wars.” —Mona Simpson, national bestselling author of Anywhere But Here “As Paul Cummins once remarked, ‘Passion without intelligence is of limited value’—and the inverse is also true—for who would want intelligence without passion? In Confessions, we see what can happen when these two qualities work in sync!” —John Densmore, drummer for the Doors

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 2020 pandemic lockdown, an experienced UK school leader dissects the assumptions which underpin his work and his school, seeking to explore what the school he leads actually does, what pupils actually experience, and how he and the school he leads could approach their daily work differently. Content ranges form the pitfalls of teacher training to the purpose of school from the perspective of pupils, from careers education to the curriculum, from the way pupils actually learn to the psychology of school reform. This book of wide-ranging, personal and sometimes biting reflections provokes educators, school leaders, governors and trustees, policy makers, parents, and pupils to think deeply and clearly about their own hopes and dreams for school and for education. A book about school, teaching and leadership like no other. By turns, philosophical, funny, rueful, wistful and infuriating, this book will inspire teachers, school leaders, policy makers, parents, and pupils to think about school in a new way.More information about LC Press can be found at www.lcpress.org.uk

Chapters in the book take the reader through the educational process of identifying children with emotional disabilities, creating an IEP, capturing and holding the attention of special needs children, making modifications and adaptations, and implementing behavioral strategies used in her classroom to attain academic and emotional success in the lives of her students. She sprinkles throughout the book controversial issues all too common in her profession: teacher burnout, overcrowded classrooms, budget shortfalls, ineffective administrators, pushy politicians, and absentee parents. She allows the reader to glimpse into her inner sanctum of the teacher's lounge and the antics that keep her of sane mind and body before and after school hours. Then she presents the reader with heart-wrenching stories about those special students who have touched her very soul. Through a combination of tough love, old-school tactics, compassion and humor the author is able to get the students to trust and open up to her in their quest to be successful for school. A "must read" for parents, educators, administrators and prospective collegiate education majors.
