beth1 Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Hi guys I was just thinking about my college placement in a reception class, what I would like to know is should I ask questions if so what sort of questions. I feel that college has put a lot of pressure on me to find a job or placement quickly so I now feel that I am going to stuggle to pay my bills only working the other 2 days per week. AGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!! I have worked in a reception class before but it too was on placement and was a long time ago well 6 years ago. Well hopefully this may lead to a job in a schools foundation stage unit in the local area. As I have been told by someone who works in a school attached to the before and after school club I am working in this week that practitioners who work volunatry in primary school usually end up working in the same school or somewhere else in the area.

Guest Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Do you mean questions regarding input for your course work? or Questions about working in the school? or am I totally on the wrong track Your letter to the school states that you would leave after placement to work in Early Yeras ( I think) What do you want to do when you finish your degree? Do you need more 'working' hours to finance yourself through uni? Are there any grants available to you? Peggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I'm a Reception teacher in a FSU so if you can clarify whether the questions are for the actual teacher or to sort out your placement, I'll try to help if I can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beth1 Posted October 11, 2006 Author Share Posted October 11, 2006 Peggy You are on the right track about both of your questions about input e.g. polices, time managment etc and the school e.g. when do I have to be there etc. I have sent you a PM regarding the other questions.

beth1 Posted October 11, 2006 Author Share Posted October 11, 2006 Inge The questions are to the teacher about helping me with my coursework tasks a case study, and other bits and bats for Personal Development and Mangement Module and when I have to be at work etc. If you can help that would be great!

beth1 Posted October 13, 2006 Author Share Posted October 13, 2006 I have visited the Reception Class at the school, I did not get to ask any questions. I went in at 10 am and left at 11.30, we watched a JP video, played with some children then went for assembly and then I went home. It is a large class of 45 children! What a small world we live in someone on my FD course, her parent works there and also some else I know who as a daughter in law works in the school as well.
