Tutorials with Dr. Edwards are always fruitful and helpful, I have each Wednesday tutorial, and based on our group discussion I learn new terms and methodologies, and based on his suggestion I try to make my teaching effective. Moreover, whenever I have an issue with my mainstream or suggestion for my essay he always replays and organizes individual tutorials.

In PLT session I really enjoy Dr, Edwards session, we are always in to the discussion and students try to share their own struggle and by addressing it to the students how would we as a teacher trainee would overcome of such issue.

Given the level of mainstream schools exposure to UCL-STEP programme, there are different expectations from the developing teachers by various schools and thus different experience for developing teachers. In order to get similar experience the schools needs to be properly informed by UCL .

I suggest a rotation of tutors across the tutorial groups to allow for all the tutorial groups to learn from the more expert tutors. This is especially required for groups that work with the new tutors as the quality of tutorial for them is compromised while the new tutors is figuring his/her out.

I think the best part is the engagement in some of the sessions and the initiation of a professional dialogue, where each student brings in his/ her understanding of the topic being discussed

In my experience I find it very challenging to convey the aims and objectives of the PGDip programme to the mentor. We are not only teaching during the week but we also have other commitments for UCL, IIS and BAI. Mainstream mentors at times do not understand our situation which makes it stressful. It would be helpful if UCL can clearly convey their expectations during placement to the mentors. Moreover, there should be flexibility from mentors on arranging meetings during the school hours considering our long commute to school and back

Perhaps there should be more engagement of the students in an effective discussion during the sessions. There could be more modelling in the way the session is taught based on its content.

The teaching staff is very supportive. They show willingness to help and there is a lot to learn from their experience. They share about specific students, their strengths and areas of improvement which indeed help us in understanding the students. Moreover, teachers also give us detailed feedback on our teaching skills and help us to develop on particular areas.

We have recently be allocated with a new tutor and he is very supportive. It would have been much better if we have had him at the beginning of the program. Building relationships take time both for the tutor and the students therefore, in future any such decisions taken ahead of time would surely help students

Tutorials are very helpful in terms of discussions. It does provide an opportunity for us to discuss our concerns and any burning questions within our tutor group. I think effective learning is happening

It would be nice if we can have face to face tutorials with our tutors as UCL has moved to full time face to face teaching. Therefore, we should be given this opportunity to meet face to face

As new trainee teachers these sessions are very helpful in placement. The topics selected for these sessions are very helpful in understanding the theories and practically applying them in school teaching. These sessions does help a lot in learning in terms of practice

The tutorial is great and helps us to understand what we are supposed to do in mainstream school in addition to discussing any issues pertaining to the assignments and study in general.

LTRP sessions are helpful in understanding the theory element of Education. The field is vast and topics have been chosen are very relevant to what we need in our practice.

I agree with my colleagues that some discussion sessions would be beneficial for us where we can learn how to implement theory to the practice.

I find PLT sessions very useful because it give me tips to improve and reflect on my teaching practice. For example, I found behaviour management session very interacting.

Session on academic reading and writing critically was very useful because she made us do what she was teaching and hopefully that will stay in our minds

Tutors and Tutorials are very Important. I found my tutor extremely supportive in relation to mainstream teaching and always available for an academic or non academic matters.

Since I have a new mentor, things are much calmer and enjoyable for me. I can see my progress now. I am observing lessons for different subjects in addition to teaching which is very eye opening for me because same students behave differently in different lessons

I agree with the above comment because I noticed that we have been treated like PGCE students who need to pass their QTS. UCL needs to clarify with the schools our position and also if the students are misbehaving and the main teacher can intervene.

It might be specific depending on tutor but overall the tutorial are very helpful in a number of ways. Starting with one on one discussion of various confusions within academia both theory and practice. Time to time evaluation and reflection added to the discussion and feedback from tutors are amazing.

Almost everything is going well in terms of observations and now teaching. We feel like being supported given our association with UCL. Individual teachers feedback, mentor feedback and peer feedback in addition to sometime students feedback are all to adding to my experience of becoming a better version of trainee teacher day by day.

The timings of mainstream especially once the observations are completed should be specific. By this I mean we should be only teaching assigned classes and have the chance to utilise the remaining time according to our priorities. Sometimes it take more than one and half hour to reach home from mainstream and by the time we are home we are too tired to do anything as we are out to time to rest or take nap. Even though we had observed/taught our assigned sessions, we should not be bound to stay at school and should not be treated like regular teachers as we have so many other things to do alonside.
