Teaching Experience
This module provides the opportunity for students to put into practice the subject and professional knowledge, skills and understanding they have acquired in subject modules 1 and 2 and the professional studies module and to thereby demonstrate that they have met the TDA's Standards required for the recommendation of the award of QTS.
The module is essentially developmental with students taking increasing responsibility for auditing and acquiring the required subject and professional knowledge needed for the planning, teaching and assessment of their subject specialism, demonstrating their awareness of professional values, responsibilities and practice and the contribution they make to the successful education of all children.
The school experience provides the context for the students to critically reflect upon their teaching and its impact upon the effective learning of pupils, informed as it will be by their observation of others, discussion with mentors and subject tutors, their reading and research.
It will also provide the setting for them to demonstrate their ability to work in teams, to manage themselves and others and be managed, to take and act upon the advice of professionals, to be flexible, creative, multi-skilled and responsible.
It will be the first step in the students taking responsibility for their continuing professional development as teachers, allowing them to make informed career choices and to produce a BYCIT (Beginning your career in Teaching) with clear targets for their induction year.
The school experience module should be seen in three distinct and developing phases; foundation, development and consolidation, corresponding with the Autumn, Spring and Summer Terms.
Each phase will contain both formalised monitoring and formative assessment via the School Experience Profiles at the end of the Autumn and Spring terms and Summative assessment at the end of the Summer Term.
Note:
Where a student has a fail against any Teaching Standard either at the formative phase at the end of teaching experience 1 or at the summative phase at the end of teaching experience on the consolidation phase then this may affect the ability to find a further placement where one is agreed.
Placements are dependent on offers from schools, which the University has to request, and cannot guarantee the timing of. As such this can affect the length of time it takes to complete the course.
