About our school experience
- Details
- We offer the opportunity to observe lessons across a range of subjects and key stages with both practical and theory lessons. This allows candidates to experience a range of teaching styles in different contexts. There will be opportunity to interact with students in lessons and during social times to allow for questions to be asked. The teacher training coordinator would also be available to answer any questions regarding the teacher training process. The outline of a full day would involve observing the tutor program, a school tour and then the opportunity to visit and observe lessons from across the school. During social times, candidates can speak with staff members and/or students to gain an insight into the school. In the afternoon session, there could be opportunity to meet with the teacher training coordinator or carry out further observations of lessons.
