- To introduce, at an appropriate level, the professional attributes, professional knowledge and understanding, and professional skills required of teachers
- To gain initial experience of working with individuals, small groups and the whole class
Assessable learning outcomes:
To demonstrate and provide evidence of making appropriate progress towards expected outcomes against the programme ITE curriculum as illustrated by the ED3PTSP formative assessment points, and to be judged as not failing appropriate standards of professional and personal conduct.Ìý
- Demonstrate through their teaching an ability to deploy established approaches to teaching and learningÌý
- Begin to demonstrate evidence-informed understanding that both informs the trainee’s own teaching (including planning and problem-solving) and informs their analysis and evaluation of classroom practice (theirs and that of other teachers).

- Show an ability to take responsibility for their own development as a teacher through reflective practice.

N/A
Summative assessment- Coursework and in-class tests:
Trainees’ attainment against the assessable learning outcomes will be assessed based on the range of evidence from their in-school practice.
Formative assessment methods:
Formative assessments comprise a combination of lesson observations, e-portfolio scrutiny and dialogue between trainee, mentor/ITTCO and university supervising tutor.
Penalties for late submission:
The Support Centres will apply the following penalties for work submitted late:
- where the piece of work is submitted after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): 10% of the total marks available for that piece of work will be deducted from the mark for each working day (or part thereof) following the deadline up to a total of five working days;
- where the piece of work is submitted more than five working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): a mark of zero will be recorded.
You are strongly advised to ensure that coursework is submitted by the relevant deadline. You should note that it is advisable to submit work in an unfinished state rather than to fail to submit any work.
Assessment requirements for a pass:
Trainees are required to meet the assessable learning outcomes in order to pass the module and to proceed to Module ED3PTGP as judged by the mentor, ITTCO and supervising tutor.ÌýThose 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.
