I read your latest news article on the use of text books - do you recommend any?

I think with the new expectations teachers need a base line to know where to aim.
Yes you make an interesting point. At the moment my advice would be don't rush into anything - publishers are very active so it will be interesting to see what is available next year. 
The key thing at the moment is to make sure there are clear lines of progression so teachers can move children on their learning. This needs to be balanced with coverage of the curriculum - with breadth and depth. Textbooks are always useful as a resource for teachers to use to support their teaching, and they can provide the practice and reinforcement for children to consolidate their learning.

As I said, publishers are working on new resources for schools, so no rush unless they are desperately needed. This is rather a short answer, but I'll review what is available for September.
