You can start with limited experience if you have the right attitude and, usually, a suitable diploma, since you learn a lot from the daily contact with pupils. You begin under the guidance of experienced colleagues and gradually take on more supervision and administration yourself. Patience, consistency and a caring approach matter most from day one.
What can you grow into as a school educator?
