Within my placement there are many teams who work together to benefit the education of each child. The school as a whole has a very strong team spirit and friendly atmosphere.
Placement Description
My placement is in St. Fergus Primary School in Aberdeenshire. St Fergus is a small rural seaside village but it is undergoing drastic developmental changes with new housing estates being built on the outskirts of the village. The main sources of work are either fishing or the gas terminal.

Teams
Within my placement there are many teams who work together to benefit the education of each child.
The school as a whole has a very strong team spirit and friendly atmosphere. Within the schools staff smaller groups co-work effectively. These include:
:) The primary six/seven class which is taught on a job share basis. The two teachers work closely together to cover all areas of the curriculum efficiently and deal with matters arising in the class ensuring the other teacher is aware of the situations at all times.
:) The class auxiliaries and the teachers who they work beside have an amazing understanding of each others techniques and form very strong network for the children easing the work load on the teachers. There ability to work so closely stems from the good communication and friendship with each other they have formed.
