What happens if a PST fails either the AfGT or the professional experience placement?
The AfGT does not take the place of the mentor teacher’s placement report/s, but exists as a companion assessment of the PST’s ability to plan, teach and assess the impact on students’ learning.
The PST must pass both the mentor teacher’s placement report and the AfGT. Institutions will have identified plans in their accreditation documents regarding the processes that they follow in their institution for PSTs who fail practice-related components of their course.
