Essential Guides for Early Career Teachers: Teaching Primary Foundation Subjects

Available now for pre-order

As Ofsted introduces a new framework with higher expectations regarding subject knowledge across the primary curriculum, there has never been a more important time for trainees to secure subject their subject knowledge and improve confidence. This book aims to help early career teachers in teaching primary foundation subjects.

This is another text for the Essential Guides for Early Career teachers series and it provides trainees, ECT’s and their mentors with the right tools for teaching primary foundation subjects, improving their subject knowledge and building understanding. It ensures that relevant theory and research are woven together with real classroom experience. It links to key readings, resources and online sources which will allow trainees to continue their own learning and encourage independent study through the use of reflective exercises and practical tasks to ensure the delivery of the best possible teaching.

A text like this is needed more than ever as the Ofsted framework for ITT is explicit in highlighting subject knowledge as being a key component to successful teaching. This book, therefore, covers the kind of topics that ECT’s might at first struggle with from art and design, to computing and IT to languages like French and German. This book breaks down each subject and points trainees in the direction of resources, support and best practice.


The Essential Guides for Early Career Teachers provide accessible, carefully researched, quick-reads for early career teachers, covering the key topics they will encounter during their training year and first two years of teaching. They complement and are fully in line with the ITT Core Content Framework and Early Career Framework and assist ongoing professional development by bringing together current information and thinking on each subject in one convenient place.
