Stress Points - Highs• Early progress reports by mentor – style of report tends to
look for strong points – confidence booster• Reaching end of first term• Response to successful lessons• Taking on responsibility for managing own lessons • Liaising with other trainees on the course – important on
social level & to vent frustrations & celebrate successes • Successful observations by UEL tutor• Participating in extra curricular activities• Parents’ evenings
![Page 32: University of East London](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081503/56813dfe550346895da7d8ca/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Stress points - Lows• Preparation for assessment as well as juggling HEI
based work such as assignments• Initial insecurity about not knowing pupils/school• Coming back in January to new term & challenges• Pressure of marking increases gradually during
placement• A lot of energy put into production of resources often not
maximised• Transition to more lessons & more difficult classes • Mentor not always finding time for trainee – trainee feels
guilty for making demands• Job hunting – nervous wait
