“Everyone who cares about children’s lives and their futures should read this book!”
Carol S. Dweck, Professor of Psychology, Stanford University, US and author of Mindset
"This book tackles the difficult and very important task of bringing together the Learning Without Limits big ideas and the challenging topic of assessment.”
Mary Jane Drummond and Susan Hart, Co-authors of Learning without Limits and Creating Learning without Limits, UK
“This is a great book, and as one of the nine teachers who was part of the original ‘Learning without Limits’ research project I can vouch for Dame Alison Peacock’s unswerving commitment to, and passion for, the principles of Learning without Limits embodied within its pages.”
Dr Claire Taylor, Pro Vice-Chancellor, St Mary’s University, Twickenham, London, UK
“The book's agenda and commitment are uplifting - to generate a love of learning and realise achievement in every child, irrespective of their circumstances or prior attainment.”
Professor Becky Francis, Professor of Education and Social Justice, King's College London, UK
"Alison Peacock makes a powerful case for trust and dialogue as the essential building blocks of this 'different way'."
Mary Jane Drummond and Susan Hart, Co-authors of Learning without Limits and Creating Learning without Limits, UK
"In contrast to some rather 'dry' books on assessment that start with abstract principles and seek illustrations of them, this book works the other way around. It is full of rich stories of practice and the voices of children and their teachers."
Mary James, Professor Emerita, University of Cambridge Faculty of Education, UK
