Are you able to help?

Curtin is looking for 50 placements for their second year, K-6 Education students for a two week Practicum. They are looking for this to occur as soon as possible and the urgency around finding placements is because of the shifting nature around what has been possible for 2020, I’m sure we can all relate to that! The focus of this Practicum is on observation and small group work. If you have teachers who would be willing to act as a mentor teacher then please contact Megan Bankes either by email m.bankes@curtin.edu.au  or phone 9266 3405 by Wednesday 10 June, where a warm response awaits you.
