We had a great day yesterday at Familiarisation!
Our trainees learned about practical classroom strategies and even took on the challenge of learning Serbian.
Learning a completely new subject gave them a chance to experience what it feels like to be a student again. They gained a better understanding of the challenges pupils can face when learning something new, which they can take with them into the classroom when teaching maths and physics.
Another brilliant day of learning, sharing and preparing for their teaching journey!

It’s been a brilliant first day at familiarisation! Today, we welcomed our new trainees as they begin their teacher training journey.
It was lovely to see everyone together in person for the first time. Our trainees had the chance to meet the people they will be training with, get to know each other and meet the team.
They also took part in their first training sessions, shared ideas and started learning together as they prepare for life in the classroom.
It was so lovely to see such a positive and enthusiastic group come together, and we’re looking forward to the rest of the week!
Day one complete...the journey has only just begun! 😃
