I found last week really informative and insightful. Already working at a school I felt I would be fairly well prepared...BUT there is so much more I need to do!
Day 1- It was pretty dull to be honest but as the week went on I understood how essential it was to get it out the way and understand the various Q standards, expectations etc. I have been trawling through my emails ever since to get as much evidence as possible.
Day 2- It was great doing a lesson observation in another school and geeting some brilliant ideas, particularly in terms of behavioural management, classroom expectations and so on.
Day 3- This day really put me at ease. It was very helpful to see the journey that the GTP students had taken this year and that there is a light at the end of the tunnel so to speak. They were also so bubbly and enthusiastic. This session really put me at ease.
Day 4- What a detailed SEN session! By far the most enjoyable of the sessions (apologies to the others!) Note to self: Good SEN practice can be practiced by all.
Day 5- Behaviour management. How to get the buggers to behave...I must read!
I have my timetable for next year and am teaching 13 periods a week from September, with a mixture of all year groups except Yr 8's. I'm looking forward to it but will definitely have to put in a lot of work over the summer.
No 6 weeks of putting my feet up then!!
