IdentityKeeping in mind the likes of Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky who have contributed many ideas that revolutionised childcare, which even fostered my mind to work in this particular field - this is one of many reasons why I would like to pursue a career in primary education.
I gained work experience in the primary school I attended as a child, and found it remarkable that one professional could simultaneously progress the learning of many pupils, thus my inspiration was to do the same.Shadowing my former year 4 teacher, I was able to understand the precise pedagogy that was in place to educate children through the National Curriculum, which supports my passion for many academic subjects. I was also given an insight to the role a primary teacher has, from planning lessons to communicating with parents, which I admire greatly because the best education does not solely occur in the classroom.
My voluntary work as a Chaperone during the Easter holidays of 2013 familiarises with this perspective, where I assisted children travelling to community-based trips. I realised how much children learn in a different environment, where they liaise with the outside world. Working as a team of professionals was also a new skill, and an essential one for me to communicate appropriately with colleagues.Discovering my ever-growing desire to teach children, I felt it was best to learn how children of a younger age develop first, hence my student placements at day nurseries.Engaging with young children
