Education - Develop the teaching skills that aren't taught in college
Budgets. Bad behaviour. Bureaucracy. Need we go on? Everyone in education knows the pressures that stress-out teachers. And, like school discipline, the pressures are getting worse.
This pressure can cause carefully prepared lesson plans to fall apart. Techniques and plans put together in college can all too easily disintegrate when exposed to real pressure in the real world. As the pressure mounts, morale declines. Many schools and LEAs are reporting recruitment and retention problems.
Unfortunately, while colleges teach people to become teachers, they often don't teach them how to handle the pressures of being a teacher.
Fortunately, we do.
