Author Biography

Dr Damien Barry is a career educator. Some would say he is somewhat institutionalised, as he went from high school to university then back to high school and never left! He'd have it no other way. Now a principal, Damien has spent almost 30 years in a variety of schools: primary, secondary, public, independent, all-girls, all-boys and co-ed. This is the book that he wishes he'd read when he was learning the ropes.
