Primary Ed students host The Peckover Primary School
We were thrilled to welcome The Peckover Primary School to our campus recently, so their students could experience university life on campus for a day. They were hosted by three second year Primary Education Students, Molly Sim, Bella Cook and Olivia Sutcliffe along with their tutors. The day started with a welcome and question and answer session, followed by a tour of campus and craft activities. The children explored the range of subjects that can be studied at university and made their own mortar boards ready for an end of day mini graduation. The staff and children enjoyed the event so much they have requested to come again next year with their Y6 pupils. Mrs Parsley said: "Thank you so much to BGU for an amazing day and for being flexible and making the day so enriching and exciting. The second year students were absolutely brilliant with our children and so patient and supportive." -

BGU lecturers pen new book for trainee primary teachers
A book written by teacher development lecturers at Bishop Grosseteste University (BGU) in Lincoln was officially launched today. 'Building Skills for Effective Primary Teaching' by BGU’s Rachael Paige, Sue Lambert and Rebecca Geeson is a new book for trainee teachers and their mentors. The book includes discussion around different aspects of primary teaching and aims to also support the mentoring and coaching conversations that happen throughout initial training. The three editors lead the successful primary initial teacher education programmes at BGU. They have drawn upon contributions from colleagues teaching on the primary programmes in specialist areas to create the book.
