ITT support plan advice
Hi, To follow up from my previous post about illness.
I have been informed that due to that and other issues my mentor has brought forward, I will have a meeting tomorrow to discuss a support plan. Can anyone give me advice? Should I be worried? Is there anything I can do or should do to protect myself?
These are the reasons listed:
Absence
I was Ill today and yesterday and last Friday (I have 1 lesson on Friday so thats not a big hit for my hours) but in on Monday (which I probably shouldnt have been becuase I exhausted myself).
I was told by a school that is hiring to come and visit the school but uni has told me I cant unless its a interview.
Communication
I told my Mentor as soon as I had decided for both days, but did not tell my Uni (I forgot to do that today and didnt know prior to today that I had to so fair cop there). Also My mentor knew I was ill and even told me to go home on Monday. Other than 1 interview I have had no other absences all year.
Lesson preparation
I have been planning my lessons. I did forget to print physical copies of a homework for a class last week. I realise have forgot to send lesson plans to my mentor but this has not been pointed out as if it had I would have just sent them. I have discussed with my mentor what I was planning to do in lessons.
Placement progress
Im not 100% sure what this means? My teaching last week wasnt my best as I was under the weather all week. I am a bit behind with marking which is almost done now.
I am very anxious about being put on a support plan because I did teach first last year and failed because I was stuck on one for 5 months (It required my subject person to meet with me and they did not respond to emails).
I have been working virtually none stop for weeks now and I am so close to finishing the course but I have anxeity and am panicing about this.
