So after much searching on the internet including the likes of amazon, it’s safe to say I was more than confused by the choices of planners on the market. Luckily for me, after watching a vlog from ‘for teachers ‘ about what your mentor will be on the lookout for during your placement.I came across a little pop up recommendation for ‘the positive teacher company’, this is a lady from my home town of Leeds who after years of teacher and based on her experiences as a mentor, has developed the most beautiful teacher planners and other accessories.

What caught my eye was the trainer teacher planner and after waiting very patiently, well 4 days actually but in the instant world we live in (that was a lifetime for me😂), it arrived.

The first thing I noticed was the amazing statement stuck to the front of the fully recyclable packing, this lived up to the company name and made me feel a bit warm and fuzzy, as well as excited to be joining the amazing group of people who teach and motivate people on a daily basis.

After ripping open my package the first thing I saw was a personal message telling me ‘good luck with your training ‘. Wow, now that brought a smile to my face.

This was followed by an A4 ring bound book type planner. It is a beautiful floral pattern which reminds me of joules and will certainly brighten the most difficult of days.

Once I start using it in September I will let you know my thoughts, but for now I just love looking at it, in pride of place on my desk.
