Thank you for this video. I have learnt a lot watching it after my first failed attempt on the PGCE application.

Can you share more tips please ❤

Can you kindly show or tell what a teacher ID card looks like? Ive seen youre wearing one while walking down to school

I just want to thank you for your quality advice on this and your other videos. I’ve watched your PGCE application and interview videos and have had offers from all 4 of my choices to train in secondary English. Not only did I get through the interviews but managed to do so with a certain aplomb - they weren’t the stressful experience that interviews usually are - thanks to your advice in here

Can you help me with the most important thing one has to go through two days before the interview? That would be great help.

Great work

Is there an update on how assessments are done across KS1 now?

wouldn't bother with the application process, PGCE is a complete waste of time and needless hassle. Of 10 people Ive spoken with who have finished in the last 3 years nobody has moved onto a job. Massive investment of time no reward. Avoid

It is beneficial for me. Thanks for sharing

While this has given me so much insights and ideas but as a Newbie, i lost track of your cursor and not sure where to click for in-depth research?

The whole mentor stories have put me off teaching.

I had a lightbulb moment watching this. I finished my training back in August 2023 and I have lost count of how many jobs I have applied for since. I am l yet to be shortlisted for an interview. I have been racking my brain for what I have been doing wrong and I think your experience aligns with mine. My confidence is at an all time low and reading over my personal statement I can see that it is riddled with self-doubts. Thank you for this and your videos covering writing personal statements. Seeing that my experience is not wholly unique has already helped me a lot. Fingers crossed that my next personal statement gets me an interview.

Thank you for your informative video. What route should an international applicant (seeking a career change) take who has a first degree, a master's, and a PGCE all from their country, as well as two years of teaching experience (mid 2000's)? I also have Maths and English o level certificates, and I'm a CPA with many years of experience.

You just earned a subscriber ❤

My school don't even have a recess time

Hi , I’m 8 months into PGCE secondary and I absolutely loved it until they sent me to placement B . So toxic and the mentor is so narcissistic and arrogant and this is a terrible thing to experience

@Petite Primary Help! I have a task and am not sure how to deal with it: Behaviour Scenario It is the first lesson on Monday morning in your Year 5 classroom. After children have completed their morning task, it is time for the weekly spelling test. A boy who is known to have SEMH difficulties begins to disrupt the test with low level distractions such as making quiet, silly comments for others to hear and tapping his pencil repeatedly on the table whilst swinging on his chair. Half way through the test, he refuses to complete the rest of his test and closes his book and folds his arms. He then gets more agitated and slides the book off the table and announces "I'm not doing the test because the test is stupid and I'm stupid!" This disrupts the lesson again. This escalates and he gets up, kicks the table leg, walks across the room to the door, knocking two pencil pots over from other tables. He leaves the room and slams the door and shouts “Leave me alone!” What approach do you take when dealing with behaviour? How would you deal with each level of this behaviour? What would you do after they left the room? What could be the reasons for this behaviour? Is there anything you could for this little boy prior to the behaviour happening?

Thank you so much!!!

I'm in Nigeria Can you help me to get teaching job ?

I did my PGCE in 1999/2000 at Sussex University. I have a LOT of criticisms of the PGCE as it was conducted back then. The course seemed very unstructured and basically directed by Government policy as opposed to educational factors. We had these ridiculous box-ticking exercises. It was clear to me that our lecturers came in totally unprepared. I remember the very first lecture at university. This guy came to the front and began spouting about education and said "what is a concept" repeating this multiple times. I remember thinking that he wanted us to guess what was in his head. The way they taught us and the way they expected us to teach kids were diametrically opposed. The hypocrisy of telling us to prepare to a forensic level then at the same time to teach us totally unprepared did not go unnoticed. The "mentor" in my first placement was clearly judgmental and I detected this as soon as I met him. He never offered me any encouragement nor gave me positive feedback. The PGCE experience nearly destroyed me. My mistake when I started my PGCE was to tell them that I was gay and I honestly think that they shared this with the schools I did my placements with. I had "come out" 6 years previously and was still of the naive opinion that I should be honest about it. I was once observed by one of the tutors from the university and he told me that I should not be a teacher.

15 is years ago when my friends 7 year old was getting a huge attitude with his parents they took everything out of his bedroom except for his bed and then gave him a set of clothes each day for him to wear within a few weeks he was back to the fun-loving sweet boy that they had before he was immersed in video games. There is no need to be as manipulative controlling and abusive as

When LDS children start going to school with non-church members some start questioning what they are taught. These children are then labeled defiant or troubled teens. If the parents or church cannot get them back under control they are put into troubled children’s schools/camps etc. Now I have lived all over the USA and I have never seen anything like this. You do not have to have any formal training to work at any of these type places. No background checks, no finger printing, no schooling etc. These children are tortured and abused even more than what they experience at home. Many commit suicide. When outside media gets involved the state will shut them down but they pop right back up under another name and owner. It is incredible how they get away with this. Police when called will tell you the parents have the right to punish their child however they see fit. School teachers and school administrators when confided in are supposed to alert DCFS/CPS but don’t as they are usually friends with these parents through their Ward. They instead tell the parent EXACTLY what they have been told and make it severely worse for the child (ren). Shari the oldest daughter said she had tried for years to get DCFS to do something but they never would. Siting that they Insufficient evidence. When a small child cannot communicate they will do nothing. Even though there is physical evidence to support the claim. Utah especially Southern Utah is very messed up. It is not about what the parents do but more about WHO THEY KNOW 🤝 iykyk

Hi im from India without experience how to become a teacher or teaching assistant in uk .can u plss tell me the procedure

What would you say is the easiest starting point. I know it’s a tough career, but I want to ease into it. Get a grasp of how the courses go and the training. Note: I’m not into university. So if you can advice whilst avoiding university options, that would be great. But if it’s not possible get into teaching full time without university experience: then I understand and I’ll have to bite the bullet. Thank you in advance.

I know this video is 3 years old but I just wanted to say thank you, I used your tips and got my place on a PGCE course ♥️ thank you for these helpful videos xx

Hope everything is okay ♥️

Hi, I am a trainee teacher at the moment and you account inspires me thorough my PGCE. I need support with my personal statement if possible please

Thanks for sharing your advice.

Is this in England? Which big city are you near?

My daughter was having terrible periods. She saw a gynecologist during covid. Had a covid test. Negative. Was operated not even a week later. A hysterectomy. Cut from side to side. Came home 2 days later. Also had to inject for 5 days. Never took any pain meds. Drove after 4 weeks and was back at work. Hope you get well soon.

Feel better

Poor you. I had to have a hysterectomy 9 years ago (at least I had 1 child!). I understand the scary major surgery thing. Do take it easy and don’t rush back to work. Have a phased return to as you will be tired easily. I hope your recovery isn’t to bad.

Had no idea you were in year 6 wow! I understand how stressed you are! Year 5 teacher here! Just focus on getting yourself well

Get well soon dear❤

I hope you are recovering well. Surgery is hard on the body, be patient with yourself as you recuperate.
