This popular text guides trainee secondary teachers through the teaching requirements for initial teacher training and the UK Professional Standards for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). It focuses on a range of key topics, summarizes key UK educational research, and includes both reflective exercises and school-based practical tasks. This third edition has been completely revised and updated to match the new QTS Standards and reflects the latest thinking. The popular existing features are now joined by new reflective tasks, which help trainees to build on the information in each chapter, and includes a new chapter on English as an additional language.
