TEACHING. A quick presentation on how to get into the world of education - once you’ve gotten out of it.
Routes Into Teaching Gaining your Qualified teaching status (QTS) – which you need to teach in all state schools is now more varied than ever, with several possible routes into the profession. • PGCE – The most popular route into teaching, which is university based, it is a professional postgraduate certificate for teaching training. • SCITT – School-centred initial teacher training, training in schools and gaining experience, this may lead to a PGCE. • Schools direct training – From October 2012, you can apply to train as a teacher with the expectation of a job once you qualify.
My Course and level of Teaching. • Already getting on my way, completing a Media and Film BA (Hons) degree at Manchester Met uni, wanting to ideally go into teaching college/sixth form level - young adults. • Want to train to be a full teacher, which would allow me to; plan my own lessons, have a range of responsibilities, and carry out assessments, to do this I will need to have a degree in my chosen subject level. However... • It’s good to know that this isn't the only option teaching could lead to for me, as mentoring and welfare also interests me, and from research this is also something that this could lead to – eg. Student support officer/counselor.
Some Facts and Information. • High quality teachers are in demand, good career development opportunities as well as financial benefits. • Starting salaries in Teaching are an average of £23,010, with this rising every year. • Teachers are twice as likely to be in management positions 3.5 years into the career compared to fellow graduates. • Currently 9 out of 10 people wanting to go into teaching gain employment within 12 months.
Have I got what it takes? • Have a range of abilities, to be able to push more able students and dedicate more time to those in need of help. • Understand the needs of diversity in the classroom. • Be prepared to plan and prepare lessons, and not to have a 9-5 job. • Upholding responsibility and understanding the significance of a teaching role. • Ensuring I have secure knowledge in my specialist subject. • Welcoming a challenege.
