Garth Smith’s End of Term Report and the Top 5 Episodes of 2015! – PP99

In an unusual episode, Kevin presents Garth Smith – ‘Our Man on the Inside’ as he gives us his ‘end of term report’. Garth has finished the first term of his PGCE at an undisclosed location in England and this time he shares his thoughts about the most challenging time he has experienced so far. We love hearing Garth’s stories from inside an Initial Teacher Training Course and following his journey towards being a fully-qualified primary teacher. As usual, Garth’s view from inside the PGCE course is fascinating and inspiring. We wish him well and hope he has a good rest, back with his family in Belfast.   Top 5 Episodes from 2015 To round off the year, Kevin has found the top 5 downloaded episodes from this year and has stitched together some great clips.
