Linking research to the classroom
Involving modern technology
New initiatives, new ideas and new findings
David Waugh (PGCE primary)
I think a crucial element of our training, which is
not replicated where student teachers are
dotted about in school-based providers, is the
cohort. Our students work together; share
common experiences; offer mutual support;
learn from each other; share expertise; have
friends etc.
Ros Roberts (PGCE secondary)
I think that the support that our students get
from dedicated staff (whose prime focus is on
the ITE students, not on the pupils which is
where school colleagues’ primary responsibility
is) is another significant factor in the experience
of the students and leads to their success.
