Overview

Module aims and purpose

This is the first of 3 school experience modules. It provides trainees with an introduction to and early experiences of teaching and learning in order to enable them to begin to demonstrate the knowledge, attributes, skills and understanding to become a qualified teacher. 

Aims:  

  • To gain insight and understanding of the requirements for good teaching 
  • To introduce, at an appropriate level, the professional attributes, professional knowledge and understanding, and professional skills required of teachers as outlined in the Programme Learning Outcomes 
  • To gain initial experience of working with individuals, small groups and the whole class 

Module learning outcomes

By the end of the module, it is expected that students will be able to:

  • Demonstrate through their teaching a systematic understanding of teaching and learning  
  • Deploy established approaches to teaching and learning   
  • Understand the conceptual framework that both informs their own teaching (including planning and problem-solving) and informs their analysis and evaluation of classroom practice (theirs and that of other teachers).  
  • Appreciate the debates about a range of issues relating to teaching and the ability to engage with these debates professionally  
  • Take responsibility for their own development as teachers through reflective practice.Work towards demonstrating proficiency in the fundamental skills in literacy and numeracy. 

On successful completion trainees will be able to demonstrate and provide evidence of making appropriate progress towards expected outcomes against the programme ITE curriculum as illustrated by the ED3SIP formative assessment points, and to be judged as not failing appropriate standards of professional and personal conduct. 

Module content

Evidence-informed practice, relationships with children and young people, professional behaviours, how children learn and child development, statutory frameworks and safeguarding, personal professional development and reflective practice, teaching and learning, subject, curricular and pedagogical knowledge and curriculum design; inclusion, planning, teaching, assessing, giving feedback, learning environment, team working and collaboration. 

Structure

Teaching and learning methods

School experience: observation, shared planning, teaching individuals, small groups and whole classes, participating in whole school life, observing teachers’ pastoral responsibilities, mentoring, school based training sessions. Trainees will be supported in school by a mentor, an Initial Teacher Training Co-ordinator (ITTCo) and supported in school by a university tutor. During this ‘shared implementation’ phrase there will be significant emphasis on shared planning and co-teaching/assessment.  

University teaching:  Whole-cohort lectures, subject and professional studies sessions, tutorials and guided independent study 

Students will be provided with a minimum of 35 days on placement in school supported in school by their university tutor. 

Study hours

At least 172 hours of scheduled teaching and learning activities will be delivered in person, with the remaining hours for scheduled and self-scheduled teaching and learning activities delivered either in person or online. You will receive further details about how these hours will be delivered before the start of the module.

Assessment

Requirements for a pass

This module is marked on a pass/fail basis. Students must pass each item of assessment to pass the module.

Trainees are required to meet the assessable learning outcomes in order to pass the module and to proceed to Module ED3IIP (Guided Implementation Primary) as judged by the mentor/ITTCO or supervising tutor. Those students identified as making insufficient progress at an assessment board will be visited by an internal moderator or programme director who will be asked to confirm whether they should be able to progress.

Summative assessment

Placement School visit and completion of progress review form 100 Prior to end of placement

Penalties for late submission of summative assessment

There are no penalties for later submission as assessments are organised through School visits and do not extend past the end of the placement.

Formative assessment

Formative assessment is any task or activity which creates feedback (or feedforward) for you about your learning, but which does not contribute towards your overall module mark.

Formative assessments comprise a combination of lesson observations, e-portfolio scrutiny and dialogue between trainee, mentor/ITTCO and university supervising tutor. Students are expected to complete a progress review form addressing how they have met the assessable learning outcomes and curriculum for the module. 

Reassessment
