In-class support 

  • As an experienced Teacher and previously an Advanced Skills Teacher for over 10 years,  I have spent a lot of time supporting practitioners in their own classrooms with their class. This practical, hands-on support can be provided during the lesson through modelling, team teaching or enabling the teacher to reflect on their practice after the lesson. Do you have an NQT or a teacher new to a year group? Would they benefit from some hands-on support and mentoring? Contact me for more information.
