So I’m going back to my “host school” today and I can’t wait. I've had a week of training following half term and I am itching to get back into the classroom! I say host school, that’s what the people of the SCITT call it. For me, I call it “home”. It’s my school. It’s … Continue reading Let me go home…

Some weeks are better than others…
Monday brings a reflection of the week gone and my word, what a week last week was. If you didn't already know, we had Ofsted in. I don't have much to say about the experience, except it was stressful, frustrating, exhausting and tough. I did lots of teaching (as a student, I'm slightly different to … Continue reading Some weeks are better than others…
Week 11…
So last week was a bit of a blur, mainly down to being pretty exhausted and poorly. Today's round up isn't going to be brilliant BUT there's a few stand out things from last week! I'm feeling slightly better now (thanks NHS!) so hopefully this coming week will be better! I've been doing a bit … Continue reading Week 11…

There was a whole load of activities going on, some I got to join in with, some I sadly missed out on! Monday was formal observation day. The head and … Continue reading Maths week: Week 10
Week 9?!
So last week was madness. Week 1 of any half term is always the most exhausting. Half term is a lovely time in a teacher's life when they can kind of breathe a little bit - don't get me wrong theres still 1000004 things to be done, but there's a little bit of breathing room. … Continue reading Week 9?!
First half term down!
Well hello there! We have reached half term holidays, how did that happen? Here we are then. I'm 1/6 of the way done with my SCITT. I am 1/6 closer to my dream. That is BONKERS. I've got a blog post coming in a few weeks about why I want to be a teacher and … Continue reading First half term down!
5 weeks down…
Morning! Week 5 has been done and dusted and it's mad to think that I'm 5 weeks through my teacher training... 2 more weeks until half term. This time is FLYING: part of me is terrified, part of me is thrilled. Last week was a really positive week! I taught Maths every day I was … Continue reading 5 weeks down…
How time flies!
It's Monday again, which means it's a recap of my last week time! This week was week 4 and I was back to school after having 2 weeks of block training away from school. To say I was glad to be in school is an understatement. I was pretty nervous though: I'm not really sure … Continue reading How time flies!
