A TASTER course aimed at people interested in becoming a teacher is being held in October.

It will offer prospective teachers the chance to spend a day in school observing lessons, and is designed to help people decide whether to apply for teacher training.

The Oxfordshire County Council course on October 3 to 5 is aimed at graduates in subjects including maths, chemistry and foreign languages, and also for male graduates interested in teaching in primary schools.
