Teaching is not an easy job and over the past few years, more and more tests and processes have been introduced meaning that the job is probably even more stressful now than it has ever been.

With this in mind, it is important for a teacher to learn year upon year to allow them to save time and also manage the classroom in the best way possible to allow them to achieve the level of education they need to deliver and to get the students to the standard they need to be at.

Every year, you should take some time to review your own performance. Throughout the year make a note of any situations that arise and how you dealt with them. If it was successful then you can use it again, if it wasn’t then you can think about how you would do things different if the same situation happened again.
