How can new teachers thrive in their first year in a school?

Today's episode of 'Beyond Survival: The New Teacher podcast' is with Sophie Green. Sophie has just finished a very successful probationer year, her first year of teaching in Scotland. In this episode she answers the question: how can new teachers thrive in their first year in a school?

In answering that central question, she also answers:

1.            What were the main differences from your PGDE to your first year in a school?
2.          What helped you to manage behaviour and build positive relationships in your own classroom?
3.            What helped you feel part of the wider school community?
4.            What helped you to manage workload and your own well-being during the year? 

I hope you really enjoy the episode.  Please do pass it on to other teachers if you did find it useful.
