Fostering future readiness

Fostering future readiness

For Radford students considering a future in education, there’s no better place to start than right here on campus.

This week, eight Year 11 and 12 students gained first-hand experience by working alongside our Junior School teachers with students from Pre-Kindergarten to Year 6 and across a variety of subjects, from PE and art to science and Spanish.

For Alex, it was an opportunity to work alongside his former Junior School teacher, Ms Ros Barlow, providing a supportive and familiar environment to try his hand at teaching.

“I’m thinking about pursuing teaching or justice studies, so this is a great opportunity to see if teaching is the right fit for me," said Alex.

On Tuesday, Alice was assisting Ms Claire Crocker with teaching art to Years 2 and 6.

"I'm considering teaching art, so working alongside Ms Crocker is a great experience. I want a career where no two days are the same," said Alice.

This is just one of the many ways Radford is preparing students for life beyond the College.
