Teaching Training Role And Responsibilities

In addition, the teacher is responsible for researching the subject area to ensure a wide, current knowledge base that will help when establishing credibility and professionalism, and then to develop a variety of interesting ways to deliver the content whilst ensuring a safe working environment for students. The teacher’s role is then to deliver the lesson content in a manner consistent with the learning styles and requirements of the delegates. These might include lecturing, large group discussion or case studies.

This includes qualities such as patience, professionalism, and being kind. It should be common sense that if you do not have patience you should not be teaching young children. They are going to be difficult to handle sometimes and if you can’t roll with the punches then you shouldn’t be there at all. It is the teacher’s job to keep them safe. To keep them safe they need a calm environment. As the teacher one sets an example. If one is cool, calm, and collected it can reflect positively through the children. “Our paramount responsibility is to provide care and education in settings that are safe, healthy, nurturing, and responsive for each child.” States NAECY’s Code of Ethical Conduct. Patience is the key.

Teachers always have to protect themselves and the best way to do it is to follow the rules of the code of practice. Being a teacher makes me automatically an example for my students therefore I must not discriminate, abuse (physically or verbally), dress inappropriate, and be late or messy.

The teacher will continuously carry out assessments and reviews taking into consideration the surroundings, the schedule, themselves and their learners in order that aims and objectives are met and

Blatchford (2013) identifies that regarding professional conduct, a teacher is expected to show high standards, uphold public trust, act within the statutory frameworks, and have a proper and professional regard for ethos, policies and practices

4) Assessment: the assessor must ensure that learner achievement and progression is checked throughout the learning process (formative assessment) and at the end of the course or programme (summative assessment). The assessment methods have to be fair, reliable and valid and linked to the planned assessment tasks. The assessor has the responsibility to ensure that learners are aware of the requirements and know how to meet the assessment criteria.

1, Explain what your main role & responsibilities are as a teacher/trainer in Education and Training (1.1)

As a course lecturer my responsibilities in identifying and meeting the needs of my learners will start from the initial interview with them when I will assess if the learner has any additional needs. This will carry on throughout their time at Oaklands College periodically. This enables me to arrange for additional learning support for example. If they have any medical conditions or a criminal background I will take steps so as to ensure this does not affect their learning or the learners around them. This equality allows all learners the same chance on the course selected.

Assessment for learning will help the learning support practitioner because it will inform us of which areas the pupils may need support with. It will give us better judgement on how to question the children and give them feedback on their work and will also show any problem areas that some less able children need to work at.

Assessment is carried out through formative (checks throughout the course), ipsative (to test against previous marks), and/ or summative (at end of course) activities to help the learner see their development whilst allowing the Assessor to give valuable feedback when appropriate. It’s purpose is to measure the learners understanding of the subject against the anticipated outcomes set by the criteria.

Recognising that the learner’s needs are important so gathering as much understanding of the learner is important. Gathering information of student’s knowledge/understanding through an initial assessment. Learners can have literacy, numeracy and ICT skills tests prior to being accepted on the course or during the course so that understanding of any learning needs can be determined.

A teacher should be committed to the school for which she is employed. She should give an honest day’s work for an honest day’s pay. She should show professionalism at all times. She should be respectful to her peers and always subject to authority. She should report for duty on time.

You should always work to and be aware of the boundaries of a teacher/trainer so that you know what is required of you, both when dealing with learners and with other professionals. It is important to maintain standards and keep within regulations of your establishment and the law. Teaching without discrimination, safeguarding learners, child protection, keeping learner information confidential as well as data protection, dressing appropriately and always acting professional; these are important boundaries of a teacher/trainer that should always be adhered to.

A driving objective for a teacher is to affect students to advance their expertise in education by finding them the correct course. The teacher should promote positive motivation and inspiration by adhering to legislation and codes of practice which will increase every student’s focus in developing and bridging gaps to display eagerness towards a healthy broad mindset, creative thinking and brighter approach. A mentor should coordinate assessments which will reinforce the ability to perceive individuals’ abilities and knowledge progressions and moreover support them further to boost their learning capacity to acquire a well-established national standards skill set.

The role of the assessor is to make an informed judgement about the range of evidence the learner has completed to show their competence to meet the assessment criteria. The assessor must also maintain objectivity. Other responsibilities of the assessor are; to carry out assessments in accordance with specifications and documentation. They must ensure that evidence provided by the learner is sufficient to meet the requirements. They must provide feedback to the learner about their performance and achievement. They are
