Mentoring colleagues who are new to PSHE

Who teaches the teacher?

There are a range of people a trainee or early career teacher might learn from, including:

• Subject tutors / lecturers
• Class teachers
• School mentors 
• Provider visiting tutors

And colleagues in these roles can work together to ensure that the practice they are sharing is current, safe, effective and allows trainees to learn well.

Ensure your own subject and pedagogical knowledge is up to date

• Download our 'safe classroom' and 'effective teaching' interactive posters — which provide an ideal starting point for learning the best practice principles for teaching PSHE education and how to establish a safe learning environment.
• Check out our extensive range of Quality Assured lessons and resources – to ensure that the teaching observed by the trainee/ECT is safe and age appropriate.
• Engage with on-going subject CPD.  We have a range of CPD options available so you can find the best fit, all designed and delivered by our Subject Specialist team.
