Mr In-Between eBook

They say things get easier in your second year. Peter Corby, Director of the International School of Ndwalowe in the beautiful African country of Awanza, may beg to differ. Parents are still demanding, teachers are sometimes more problem than solution, students never cease to surprise, and now the PTA has gone rogue. The Board remains a critical friend, sometimes very critical. And who is stalking Anna Street? At least Peter can escape from it all by marvelling at the fabulous wildlife of Africa from a bloody-minded elephant to a pugnacious caterpillar. PRAISE FOR THE NEEDFUL: "This book is a 'must read' for staff and Board members in international schools; for aspirant Heads – to see what they are letting themselves in for, and for experienced Heads – who will take comfort from the resonance of past and future battles with Board members, staff, parents and local bureaucracy. Peter MacKenzie, I salute you. I wish I had written this book." – Wilf Stout, International School Magazine. "The Needful is both a highly entertaining read and a serious consideration of the aims and realities of international education. It should appeal not just to the international education community but also to a more general audience." – David Wilkinson, International Schools Journal.
