Every CRT eventually faces unexpected situations in the classroom — from student behaviour incidents and missing lesson plans to technology issues, emergencies and difficult conversations with staff or students.
In this episode, we explore a range of common “What happens if…” scenarios that relief teachers may encounter during a school day and discuss practical ways to respond calmly, professionally and confidently.
We also look at the importance of adaptability, communication and problem-solving when navigating unfamiliar environments, while offering strategies to help CRTs feel more prepared for the unpredictable nature of relief teaching.
