I am especially glad that I have been able to see how this course will compliment my plans to become a primary teacher, with specific examples being used within school settings.

Learning support practitioners can be an invaluable resource in the successful planning, delivery and review of learning. They can offer immeasurable support to the teacher and, most importantly, to the pupils. However, that support is only truly effective if it is organized, structured and consistent – both in terms of the learning objectives set by the teacher and the pupil’s own learning needs. There are many ways in which a learning support practitioner can contribute to the Classroom Process Cycle1 (planning > preparing > doing > reviewing etc.) but let’s look at just some of them.…

In order to assess pupil’s achievements the teacher will take the main lead in doing so and the learning support practitioner will take guidance from the teacher’s assessments in order to support the pupil’s progress. In order to have a clear vision of the students ability and how they are progressing, the class teacher will monitor and assess students achievements, conduct reports of the achievements found for the department; other staff including year learning co-ordinators; and for the parents, they will also have meetings to share examples of pupil’s progress and discuss why they think that child is working at that particular level, this will further help the teacher to shape and adapt their teaching to a child’s individual needs. The teaching assistant’s role at this time will be to support the teacher and have an input by discussing how they also believe the student is coping with the subject and to help set targets that can be put into the report so the student can achieve to their full potential.…
I have been working in this school for 11 years now and I have seen a lot of changes and development throughout the years. You, the students, have also experienced changes as well. Instead of providing you with all the information about the school, I think it would nice for you to demonstrate your Personal, Learning and Thinking Skills (PLTS) and from your personal experience to provide a brief report on this school as an organisation.…
Accurate, factual, up to date Record keeping is a very important part of a teacher’s role. They need to keep effective assessment records for every student. It allows both teacher and the student to reassess the teaching-learning relationship. This identity’s which students need more help, guidance and support and helps them understand what they need to do next to improve their work. This enables the teacher to base their lesson plans on a detailed knowledge of each pupil. Records tell us what has been taught and when. It helps underpin the courses structure by telling us the complete history and progress of both student and the course. Only then can we give the learner accurate and reliable feedback…
