Trainee Teachers- securing your first role

At this time of year, even in the best of times, it is normal for trainee teachers to start panicking about not securing that vital first role for September. Its not helped that these are certainly not the best of times! While the temptation might be to keep banging out application after application this probably isn't the best approach and could, potentially, lead to more anxiety should another rejection email come through (or worse never hearing again from the school). There are, however, some things you can to do help you succeed or, at the very least, take some of the pressure off yourself.
