These placements will allow you to apply your learning in real classrooms, helping you to refine your teaching techniques and gain confidence in delivering lessons. In addition to subject-specific training, you will develop transferable skills, such as classroom management, assessment strategies, and supporting students with diverse needs. Mentor support throughout the course will ensure you receive valuable guidance as you grow as an educator.
