Finally passed my NQT year last summer - my job is 0.4. I am in a challenging inner city school, high FSM, SEN but low EAL.
I am still not happy with my classroom management. I think I have good rules and routines in place but still face daily challenges and boundary testing. There is no chair throwing or rioting, just lots and lots of low level disruption from my year 8s and 9's.
My boss says he can see a massive difference from last year in terms of the elusive 'presence' and he loves my lessons and resources, but lessons take ages to start off and I don't get through my planning with year 8/9.
Does it gradually get easier through the first years after NQT?
Any positive words/ encouragement/ stories / tips would be hugely appreciated!
