This unit provides students with their first professional experience placement in the school setting. It enables students to gain an understanding of the school curriculum and their role as a teacher in observing and planning in this setting from an early childhood perspective. The unit identifies the importance of transitions between primary schools, early childhood settings and secondary schools. Students explore appropriate ways to guide children's behaviour in the school setting and to explore their philosophy of learning and teaching. -- Course Website
