School-based Teacher Training
A Handbook for Tutors and Mentors

Edited by:


December 2012 | 104 pages | SAGE Publications Ltd
Covering both Primary and Secondary teaching, this handbook offers support to those delivering school-based teacher training. By identifying best practice, the book shows you how to develop your professional knowledge and become an effective teacher educator and mentor.

Topics covered include:

- strategies for coaching and mentoring trainee teachers

- teacher training in schools

- links between teacher education and recent research

- how to develop your own identity as a teacher educator

Packed with case studies of good practice, models of successful teaching and activities to try, this practical book leads you through a professional development process that will enable you to be confident and secure in your practice.

An essential guide for tutors, mentors and all those involved in staff development in schools, the book is also useful for experienced teachers in schools who are taking on training roles and supporting and mentoring newly qualified teachers (NQTs).

Elizabeth White and Joy Jarvis both teach in the School of Education, at the University of Hertfordshire.

'This book provides an invaluable resource for Teaching School leaders and others that are keen to embrace the new agenda for initial teacher education. The rich complexity and benefit of supporting professional learning through critical friendship and practice based enquiry is clearly presented. Practical tools for reflection enable the reader to engage with the text in a meaningful and engaging manner. This book should be essential reading for all those leading teacher training within schools'
Alison Peacock, Headteacher, The Wroxham School


While it is intended to be useful for all those involved in staff development in schools, there is a focus on experienced teachers moving into the role of supporting and mentoring recently qualified teachers.
Looks extremely useful!
