What advice would you give your younger self?

Hello all,

Firstly I hope I am doing this correctly and I apologise if not!

I am a PGDE Modern Studies about to embark on my final school placement before probation next year (I also ticked the box).

I recently attended an excellent talk through the PGDE by a  certain ‘The Real David Cameron’  who articulated many pieces of advice for PGDE folks – particularly signing up for this website.

I felt a bit of a fraud snooping on all the awesome sharing of ideas, experiences  and resources on here without posting something myself…

So was just wondering what advice people would give their younger selves prior to their final placement and entry to probation generally?

Thanks!
