GRADUATE TEACHER LEARNING SERIES

 

The Learning Series will connect you with the right people and the right resources at the right time. Designed as 12 editions spanning the teaching year, everything in the Learning Series is written for you, a graduate teacher starting out in the teaching profession.

It focuses on the issues that are most challenging to new teachers and offers you practical strategies, research and evidence. The Learning Series is a conversation between expert teachers and graduates like you.  You’ll hear how experienced teachers manage their classrooms to get the best out of their students and you’ll find conversation starters to enrich professional conversations with your mentor teacher.  You’ll also be hearing stories from graduate teachers from 2018 and 2019 about the challenges and excitement of being a teacher.
