First Block Placement (Thamesmead)



Wednesday 1st October 08

Today was the first day of training. I couldn’t sleep all last night, feeling tense about the experience!!

Early morning, i met Curricular Mentors training (Emma) who introduced us to Training School Manager (Helen Aley). Also had the joy to meet 5 other trainees; James who is from Brunel, Carol Anne, Claire, Robecca and Emma who are from different universities, but i cant recall.

Later during that day we had a tour around the school with Emma, then each one of us had different programs. I personally had to meet my mentor (Neil King) who was sadly ill that day. Instead i met his colleague, a very friendly and lovely lady (Bridget Oakes). We had a chat, showed me IT resources as well as student work.

In general, I was pleased also relieved :)
