‘I have not come across another text like it - it’s easy to follow and a nearly step-by-step guide on how to craft documentation and formulate plans/assessment documentation.
This book has really helped with making my journey easier and I have a lot more confidence in my documentation and planning.
I genuinely find this book to be one of the more excellent STEM books I have. One that will become very dog eared and often read.’

- Rori Vranjes, Monbulk Primary School, STEM Teacher
