Product Details
Overview
In this powerful memoir-meets-manifesto, Jaz Ampaw-Farr brings her signature blend of insight, inspiration and laughter to the page to celebrate the vital and transformative impact teachers have on the children in their care.
Because of these people, Jaz went on to become a teacher, writer and award-winning international speaker who, through celebration and provocation, engages educators and galvanises them into embracing the difference that they can make when they, too, put being a human first.
In Because of You, This is Me Jaz shares her story - often harrowing but always uplifting - to show how the everyday heroes in our schools can transform the lives of the children who need their help the most.
Essential reading for all educators.
**Trigger Warning:** This book addresses themes of child abuse and neglect, which may be upsetting or triggering for some readers. If you or someone you know has been affected by similar issues, please take care when reading and consider seeking support.
Growing up in poverty, and neglected and abused by her own parents, Jaz Ampaw-Farr was destined to become a statistic. Her story was changed however, by five teachers who made the point of putting human connection first - despite the challenges of the education system.
