Work experience - Primary school assistant
In year 10 I did a week of work experience in a primary school, which helped me build many different skills from hands on tasks to office skills. Some of the skills I have learned from this experience are;
- I helped to maintain a clean and orderly classroom for the children to have there lessons in, tidying up after them and cleaning when necessary.
- I assisted teachers in managing classrooms to make sure the children had help when they needed.
- I helped provided one-to-one assistance to pupils who found subjects more challenging, taking small groups out of lesson and help them to focus and better their understanding.
- I built trusting relationships with pupils and teachers through active listening and communication skills.
