Making a success of your teaching placement is a vital part of achieving qualified teacher status (QTS). With a focus on practical strategies and closely referenced to OfSTED, this book provides essential guidance on how to translate the 'outstanding' criteria into practice.
The authors break down the OfSTED criteria so that you can easily identify the skills and knowledge you need to make the most of your placements.
Packed with case studies, practical tasks and links to the QTS standards, the book is structured around:
developing professional knowledge
planning
how to be an outstanding teacher
classroom management
teamwork
assessment
Continuing Professional Development (CPD)
This book will help trainees make the difficult jump from 'good' to achieving a Grade 1 'outstanding' on their placements.

'This book will help trainee teachers optimise their progress, and move it towards 'outstanding', during the school based aspect of their training. It contains both points for reflection and case studies which emphasise the importance of 'brave' teaching where experimentation, creativity and flexibility are developed and employed in classroom settings' -
