Whole School Issues
This part of the course focuses on teaching and learning, and on wider school issues. It aims to help trainees recognise the concerns which are common to all teachers, to introduce current thinking on these issues and to encourage reflection on them in the light of both reading and school experience.
Topics are covered by means of talks, seminars, videos and DVDs, discussions, workshops and school-based activities.
Two weeks of professional enrichment during the summer term offer further opportunities for trainees to develop their expertise.
