Ex-headteacher Mike Piercy has written an autobiography about his life, personal and professional, showing how his experiences have influenced his educational philosophy, school leadership skills and views on the independent school sector.
Mike has worked in education for over 25 years, most recently as the head of The New Beacon, Sevenoaks , from 2008-2003. Prior to that Moor Park School, Ludlow, Shropshire, where he was head from 2001.“I was completely absorbed by careering. It is clear and strong and grounded and full of telling detail… More than this, it is inspiring.” - Jonathan Smith, Novelist.
Independent schools – prep schools in particular – have some freedom to nurture individuality and can be appealingly eccentric. To the many who will be unfamiliar with prep schools this book sheds light on their strengths, what they offer to young people and how they can be led through challenging economic and socio-political times. While aspects of leadership feature throughout, this is not a leadership manual.
