Sights and Sounds that can make any Teacher Smile

Having been “on the road” as an Induction Coach the past two years there were many things about being in one school every day that I didn’t know I missed.   It doesn’t matter what or where you teach, there are just some sights and sounds unique to schools that simply remind us that we chose the right profession.

  • Academic conversations among students
  • The buzz as students enter the building
  • Youngsters lost in books
  • Children on the playground using their imagination
  • Taking part in a morning meeting
  • Learning alongside your students
  • The magic moment that a student “gets it”
  • The genuine excitement and curiosity when a new topic is introduced
  • Collaboration amongst students and colleagues
  • Meeting involved and supportive parents
