As the title suggests, a large part of this assignment will be a literature review (hence the wording ‘substantial review’). You will also be expected to make some comparisons with practice that you have observed in school to date: this can involve watching teachers, talking to children, reading policies, looking at work, discussion with staff, anything that can give you a picture of how your area is taught or developed in school. To help you frame your reflections from school, this will be done using one or more reflective models. Substantial knowledge base. Ability to discriminate key issues and establish some links to the wider context. Arguments are confidently expressed through clear, logical lines of thought.

Conclusions are firmly articulated, comprehensive, relevant and arise directly from the premised arguments.
