Community in which the school is situated:
Daspoort
Reflection: Why is the school context important? How would this influence your task as a
teacher?
It is important to understand the school context to know what resources you have to
use, so that if you need resources that the school does not have, you can either
borrow from a neighbouring schools, so that the learners will benefit when you are
teaching them. To have a good school context it will help you to build a more positive
attitude for the learners towards the school.
A teacher must always understand where the learners come from to understand the
learners better. The teachers must understand the internal and external influences on
the school and on the learners. By knowing the school context, you as an educator
will understand the behaviour of learner’s better and will know how to support them
5
, and motivate them.

TO BE FILLED IN BY THE STUDENT:
What are your expectations of the mentor?

the school on my first day.
I expect that my mentor teacher respects me as an educator and not as one of the
learners in their classes.
To help and guide me to be the best educator can be and help guide me to improve
my teaching methods and way of teaching, to help me get all the necessary
supporting and learning material that I would need to do my practical to the best of
my ability, and to sign my portfolio after it has been completed.
