This is not just a small undertaking. This is a significant undertaking in initial teacher education that has the capacity to impact not just what’s happening in ITE, but across the whole of higher education.

On being part of a collective
We have very much benefited from the collective knowledge of our peers and have really enjoyed the process of being involved in moderation at this level.

What we went from was a concentration on what we were doing locally … to a lifting of our gaze to take in national perspectives and, more importantly, the perspectives of lots of our colleagues around the nation who come at teacher education from unique disparate ways but, now, with a shared understanding of the outcomes that they associate with high quality teacher education.
