Description:
This five week Professional Practice is intended to provide the Pre-service Teachers with the opportunity to work with school students over an extended period.

Typically, Pre-service Teachers will teach in both major and minor areas during this Professional Practice period.
The five week Professional Practice also provides Pre-service Teachers with the opportunity to participate in some of the general duties undertaken by teachers, and to learn more of the pastoral care system in the school, and the way this links with strategies for managing the behaviour of students.  This Professional Practice requires a full time commitment in a secondary school for five weeks.
