Pastoral Care, Guidance Principles and Practices
‘I think it is very easy to take Guidance staff for granted. Until I looked at the remit for a guidance teacher in my school I hadn’t really thought about what exactly their day to day job entails. The course was therefore very informative.’
‘This course provided me with a holistic understanding of guidance. Activities dealing with a comparative analysis of the school’s standards and pastoral provision were very useful as they helped me reflect on and improve my practice’
‘Really enjoyed the course. I found the deadlines hard work with commitments as we all do, but in another sense, the deadlines were great to help us get the course completed’.
‘The tutor’s comments on the discussion board opened up my thoughts. She was very supportive. A person easy to approach if I was not sure if I was doing activities correctly’
‘I liked the way the course was structured and presented. I felt part of a group in this course - the study buddy idea was brilliant. It is great to have someone somewhere else in the country to talk to about stuff and to make friends with’.
‘I feel I have gained more knowledge and understanding and have enjoyed this module. E-learning means that I can do more than one course in a year’.
‘I can’t believe how easy it is to check and write a message now we are at this end of the course. When I first started I thought I was never going to be able to work out which area was for which, how to compose a message etc.’
‘The tutor’s support has been invaluable. Definitely up for doing the next 2 modules!’
