      Few teachers I’ve spoken to reckon they come in under prepared because they don’t have classroom experience (and don’t use uni stuff, all they learn is in the classrom). Just seems silly when it’s so important for learning to be able to do the planning and get the experience.

        Same thing happened to nurses. Used to be all on-the-job training. Now it’s a uni degree.
