Emma and Tom try to get to the bottom of the difference between coaching and mentoring, and what's best for student teachers at different times in their course. The regular wellbeing slot explores an idea from David Allen's famous book 'Getting Things Done', we shout out to a multi-talented drama PGCE student from the 2017-18 cohort, and Tom finds a good use for an hour-long countdown timer in his lessons.

Join us again in a fortnight, when we'll have a guest with us to put the theory into practice and discuss with us how student teachers can get the best from their mentor. (and vice versa!)
