The Teacher's Heart: Reclaiming Humanity in Education (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780473760199)

The Teacher's Heart: Reclaiming Humanity in Education is a bold invitation to teachers, school leaders, and communities to resist this narrowing view. Dr. Sarah Aiono draws on classroom stories, research, and decades of practice to argue that teaching is a human science: complex, relational, and deeply ethical. This book reminds us that thriving classrooms are built not on rigid programmes but on professional trust, creativity, and courage. It offers teachers a vision of autonomy within constraint, practical strategies to protect their integrity, and encouragement to reframe the narrative of what successful education looks like. At its core, The Teacher's Heart is a call to return to what matters most: the relationships that shape lives, the joy of learning, and the humanity at the centre of teaching.
