Each trainee will be allocated a Lead Tutor to work with them throughout the year in addition to the Subject Mentors in each of their placement schools. These are all experienced and current classroom practitioners.
Assessment of Trainees |
---|
Trainees are assessed against teachers’ standards in order to gain Qualified Teacher Status. Evidence for this comes from a range of sources which include lesson plans, lesson observations, pupils‘ work scrutiny, medium term planning, mentor meeting records and subject knowledge tracking. In order to gain the Post Graduate Certificate of Education, trainees must reflect and evaluate their own practice as well as completing two additional level 7 assignments, which also earn Masters Credits. Trainees’ progress will be formally reviewed and assessed at the end of each stage but formative assessment underpinning development occurs continuously throughout the course. |
