"Beginning Primary Teaching" supports primary teachers' early
professional development and learning, tackling key questions and
concerns that new teachers might face in their early careers, such
as: How will I get through the first term? When will I feel like a
'real' teacher? What can I expect from my first years in teaching?
Drawing on the experiences of beginning primary teachers
themselves, this is an authentic account of their crucial early
teaching experiences, challenges and achievements. As well as
providing a research-based context, the book is firmly grounded in
the day-to-day practices of education professionals working with
young people in schools, and offers valuable practical guidance for
new teachers. By illustrating and exploring early experiences in
teaching, this book helps primary teachers to understand their
early professional development and learning and helps them to
reflect on their own practice as well as that of others, offering a
source of practical support throughout the important early years of
their careers. "Beginning Primary Teaching" is essential reading
for all new primary teachers, including those completing initial
teacher training, newly qualified and early career teachers, as
well as the growing number entering teaching through
employment-based routes.
