Course Description

Developing teaching (Block A - 4 weeks) Transition to teaching (Block B - 5 weeks)
For primary, this focuses on the Nursery and Early stages. In Nursery build up to taking full responsibility for five days for the pre-school context, equivalent to the role of the pre-school teacher. In Early stages, plan and manage ten full days of continuous responsibility. During periods of continuous responsibility and in collaboration with the class teacher, implement and evaluate programmes of learning in Mathematics, English Language, RME, Environmental Studies, PSD and Expressive Arts, with appropriate differentiation to meet the needs of individual pupils.
School based study includes a programme of Wider Aspects of School and School Based Enquiry Tasks which follow up aspects of the campus based professional studies programme.
