Great Education Quotes
We can all make use of a good quote, whether it’s for a birthday card, to stick up on the wall or post to twitter/pinterest. Here are some quotes we hope you will find relevant to teaching. If you send me a picture of one printed out in the staff room/your classroom you will win a small prize of some sort. Whilst the books these have been taken from are not teaching books I think you will be able to relate them to situations you will find yourself in.
