What Now?
Now that you have made it through your NQT year
you could potentially have many options laid out
in front of you, for example:
Stay put (if an option) – gain further experience
and confidence reinforcing what you have already
learnt.
Move – A fresh start in a new school giving you the
opportunity to establish yourself on an equal
footing to all other teachers.
