International trends in initial teacher education (ITE) and induction increasingly emphasise the importance of school-based learning for beginning teachers, and recent policy shifts have given many more schools a leading role in ITE. This book focuses directly on what has been learned from within well-established partnerships about the nature of beginning teachers’ learning in schools and explores the ways in which teacher educators – both those that are school-based and those in universities who work in partnership with them – can most effectively support that learning.
Beginning Teaching is part of the successful Critical Guides for Teacher Educators series edited by Ian Menter.
