Key changes to the placement for 2017-18 if you have been a PG1 CM before… Full details are available in the PG1 specific handbook. Contextual analysis completed as a practical exercise and used to set three key targets at first weekly R&R meeting with CM. Students will return to university for four days during placement – three days of teaching and one day post-interim for Personal Tutor meeting. SEND/Inclusion Experience takes place during the PG1 placement – 5 days only. One week or 5 days equivalent between 8th Jan & 26th Jan. Check if your student will be attending a specialist setting (organised by Man Met Uni) and on which dates. Some students will carry out their days in their PG1 school or at a specialist setting organised by their PG1 school. Full details in SEND Experience Guidance document Note the weekly breakdown in the handbook. This is to support you and the students with the expectations at each stage of the placement including the level of support students can expect to receive and when they are expected to become more independent. Early Reading and Phonics tasks - no booklet anymore. Students have downloaded guidance that they need to follow and they have had a specialist briefing on this. Class mentors should not be NQTs – they need that year to develop themselves. IF the CM is absent for more than three days and with no imminent return in sight, the university expects school to provide an alternative class mentor, especially as this is the first placement for the PGCE students.

Changes to documentation / key documentation SBT report – new with all standards separate and Part 2 RoLO – reflects the revised report Interim Grades & QA doc – only grades need to be shared with UVT at interim but report (streamlined version) must be completed and shared with student. Weekly reflection incorporated into weekly review and reflection record New SBT Action Plan format
