Successful Teaching Placement: Primary and Early Years (Achieving QTS Practical Handbooks)

All trainee teachers in the UK working towards achieving QTS are required to spend a number of weeks in schools observing experienced colleagues and developing their own teaching and classroom management skills. Working in school for the first time can be an anxious and uncertain experience, and even for those who have previous classroom experience, a new school environment can be intimidating. This book offers practical advice on key issues such as how to behave in schools, how to work as part of a team and how to manage difficult and challenging situations.
