Tiring and eye opening! I am currently taking on a new teacher role too so am juggling two major life changes - after a considerable break from studies and a sedate career. I keep telling myself - 24th May!
Job Prospects
How does your uni make efforts to increase your employability (careers department, work placements, transferable skills)?
I am currently working as an unqualified teacher in a reception class. This course will allow me to progress and to continue my development and provide me with an insight and understanding of the background behind the early years profession.
Course and Lecturers
What do you like most and least about the way your course(s) are taught?
This semester has been a little more relaxed to allow for information to sink in and allow us to also concentrate on the dissertation element. Getting the more 'intense' topics out of the way first enabled us to hit the ground running with our studies and set the scene for future assessments.
