This book provides a call to action for post-compulsory teacher
education professionals, both in the UK and internationally, to
unite around key principles and practices. The professional,
educational and funding turbulence experienced by post-compulsory
teacher education since 2008 has been significant. Austerity
financing and increasing government intervention have provided many
new and difficult challenges. At the same time evidence is building
that the quality of teaching is the most important contributor to
the quality of learning and achievement, and teacher education is
demonstrably one of the most important influences on that teaching
quality. The mainly workplace-based partnership model of teacher
education used in the post-compulsory education (PCE) sector
resonates well with a number of key current developments in the UK
and broader field of teacher education. PCE teacher educators are
particularly well placed to tell their story and share their vision
of a better future for teachers through their own experiences,
values and principles. Written by a range of post-compulsory
teacher educators, the text therefore is an informed and passionate
argument for: improving the professional recognition of teacher
education and teacher educators; demonstrating how teacher
education already connects teaching professionals into an engaged
and collaborative professional community; providing strategies to
enact this vision through connected, democratic professionalism.
This title is part of the successful Critical Guides for Teacher
Educators series edited by Ian Menter.
