Product Description

The majority of ITE students in Scotland are postgraduates with only one year to grasp the vast skills and knowledge required to become a primary teacher. Therefore, for many, school placement is a source of stress and worry. This book combines the information and support that students need to help them prepare for, enjoy and maximise the benefits of teaching placements for their professional development. It has been specifically written for the education system in Scotland, taking full account of the differences in practice and terminology that make English books of little use to trainees in Scotland.

Editorial Reviews

Review
It is very good to have a textbook specific to Scotland and it appears to be well presented, accessible and covering the key aspects for students on placement. --Lecturer, University of Aberdeen

It is a very clear and practical book. Students will find this answers many of their questions and will help calm anxieties. It is very specific to Scottish Education which is most refreshing. --Lecturer, University of West Scotland
