Course Description

The course is split as follows to allow for consolidation on campus between each part:
  • Observation for 1 week;
  • 'Beginning to Teach' for 4 weeks
  • 'Developing Teaching' for 4 weeks
Focussing on middle and upper stages, students will begin to develop teaching practice and investigate wider aspects of School Experience. In the first four week block, students will be expected to take full continuous responsibility for their class for two days and in the second block for five days.
Classroom Practice is normally carried out in middle and upper stages, with each stage playing an equal part.
School Based Study includes a programme of Wider Aspects of School and School Based Study Tasks which follow up topics introduced in the LTS course during semester 1.
