What should every teacher have in their survival pack?

Whatever kind of class you teach, there’s a few key essentials which should always be close at hand. As the start of a new term rolls around, let’s take a closer look at the top items to store in your survival pack…

A Planner and Timetable

A planner combines the best bits of a diary, handbook and attendance booklet all in one handy item. You can use this piece of kit to help organisze your work, and customize it to your own school’s requirements.

It’s also worth investing in a timetable, and this is a particularly useful item if you’ve just started teaching jobs in London and want to stay on top of your schedule.

Stickers

A popular staple for teachers, smart stickers add extra luster to your marking and encourage students to do their best.

Snacks

Long working days are a part of teaching life, so be sure to stock a few tasty snacks somewhere you can easily access them. Opt for healthy options to help you stay at the top of your game.

Marking Bags

To keep your making safe, invest in a few strong marking bags – which will let you transport vital paperwork wherever it needs to go.
