On the 8th of June, PGCE PCET students approaching
the end of their programme attended a conference aimed at celebrating
achievements and sharing tips and resources for improving practice. This was an
opportunity for trainees from both the part-time and full-time provisions to
meet and work alongside each other, sharing their experiences as student
teachers and identifying development priorities to work on during their
upcoming Professional Formation Year.
Through the day trainees were split into subject specialist
groups to meet other practitioners interested in the same area. Here they
intimately discussed the successes they felt they had achieved throughout the
course of their training, presenting the resources they had crafted and used as
developing teachers.
The day concluded with trainees being asked to consider what
they had taken away from the conference, as well as what they intended to work
on as they approached the start of their new journey as qualified teachers. The
conference was received very well by all students, and offered students a
chance to say goodbye and thank you to their tutors who had supported them
through the course.
We will shortly be putting the resources and case studies
submitted by the student teachers online in order to continue to help our past
trainees as they enter their first year of teaching, as well as to begin to
support new PGCE PCET students starting in September. Watch this space for
further news!
