Diary of an Apprentice Teacher Hi! I’m Mollie and I am completing the Primary Teacher Apprenticeship focussing on Reception and Key Stage 1 (ages 3-7). I am what they call an “upskill” as I was already working in a school as a Teaching Assistant before agreeing with my head that I should start a Teacher Apprenticeship. I started the apprenticeship in August when both myself and my in-school mentor completed the programme induction with Best Practice Network. During the induction, we decided that my 20% off-the-job training would largely take place on Fridays. I learn on the job while teaching from Monday-Thursday.
All of my regular teaching activities are in black and my apprenticeship activities are in blue.
