FAQs for NQTs - Practical Advice and Working Solutions for Newly Qualified Teachers (Hardcover)

Entering the classroom for the first time as a newly qualified teacher can be a daunting prospect, not only in terms of teaching the students, but also in terms of forging relationships with new colleagues and gaining professional support, advice and respect within the workplace. This useful reference book offers authoritative yet accessible answers to common questions posed by new and trainee teachers as they face these practical everyday questions. Organised into sections the book covers issues such as job hunting, induction, managing workload, relationship building with pupils and colleagues, dealing with parents, and other personal yet work-related issues. The issues covered are ones that have been highlighted through Elizabeth Holmes' work as an online agony aunt for teachers and her column 'Ask Elizabeth' on Eteach.com. Based on real questions with common themes this will be a welcome resource for any NQT.
