Primary teacher training is challenging. Trainees must be prepared to
consider teaching in innovative ways, while remaining focused on the
unchanging requirements of children's learning. The fourth edition of
this popular core book supports trainee teachers working towards primary
QTS who need to take account of the diverse aspects of primary
professional studies.
This is a comprehensive, core text for the primary professional studies
module. It begins with an exploration of the curriculum and reviews the
current curriculum. The text moves on to look at ′The Developing Child′
encouraging students to focus on child-centred teaching and learning and
explores the needs and learning journeys of all children.
The fourth edition includes new chapters on technology and learning,
mindfulness in the classroom, reflective practice and completing
research and writing assignments for primary teacher training.
