Developing theory into practice: How mentors are integral to the curriculum for Initial Teacher Education

With the arrival of the ITE Core Content Framework (CCF), and a new BA degree and PGCE at Manchester Met, we feel it is important that we discuss how we can work together to ensure academic studies and classroom practice build on each other. 

In this recording of the meeting, we look at ‘mentoring from expert colleagues' in the Core Content Framework and synergy of academic studies with classroom practice.

Two members of the Partnership Team lead the debate, and one of our professional mentors provides a case study from school.
