As the Covid-19 pandemic continues, students studying to become teachers continue to face challenges in relation to the teaching practice/ work integrated learning element of their studies. Over the past two CoP meetings, the Initial Teacher Education (ITE) CoP has been looking at how participating institutions support their ITE students. These meeting highlights give an update on collaborative work happening through the JET Researcher’s Boot Camp Theme 11:  A model for extra-school-based teaching practicum in Covid-19 and beyond. We also discussed how institutions are modelling responses to the pandemic to their students.
