MST Final Assessment Report (Part 1)
Name of student:
Jawhara
Course: Teaching Practice
Rashed
Year: 2
2b
Name of preschool / school: RAK Academy
Mentoring School Teacher: Helen Thompson
Absence dates / reasons: 0
General Context: Year level with which the student teacher worked, special characteristics,
nature and size of groups, and a brief description of what the student teacher did (e.g. specific
responsibilities, content areas covered; whole class/group work)
Ms Jawhara has worked in Year 3 for this teaching practice, in a mixed-ability class. She has
gained in confidence and by the final week Ms Jawhara taught the daily phonic sessions and
most of the literacy sessions to the whole class. Ms Jawhara has experienced teaching literacy,
phonics and guided reading sessions. She has taught sessions on writing an advert, including
speaking skills, grammar and note-making. Ms Jawhara has taught Phase 3 Phonic sessions
and now has a clear understanding of the different parts of the lesson. Ms Jawhara has also
supported in the classroom, working with ability groups during maths and social studies. She
has also supported an ALN child during some of the phonic sessions.
Observed Strengths:
Ms Jawhara is keen to improve her teaching skills and has listened to advice given and
reflected upon her own practice. She has applied ideas from our discussions to her own
planning and has a clear idea of what will happen in her lesson and what she wants the
children to achieve. She has observed my teaching closely, making her own notes and this has
developed her understanding of the different sections of a lesson. I have seen her develop her
class control and improve her management of the children.
Ms Jawhara was well-prepared, making her own powerpoint slides and flashcards to support
the children. These resources were clear and engaged the children.
Ms Jawhara has involved herself in the wider school too, such as helping out during Parent
Consultations, attending Extra-Curricular Activity club and carrying out duties at playtimes.
Areas for Development:
I think Ms Jawhara needs to develop her assessment of the children so she will have a
better understanding of what each child has learnt and then use this to plan her next
lesson.

General Comments:
I have enjoyed working with Ms Jawhara. She has worked professionally and is
able to reflect on her own practice. She has grown in confidence as the
practice has gone on and was keen to teach most of the English sessions
during the final week.
I wish her all the best.
