Abstract

Research in initial teacher education (ITE) often focuses on small, boutique programmes. In this paper I explore how universities with large ITE programmes seek to achieve quality at scale. ITE occurs in specific locations; as a scaled practice (attendant to other discourses such as national policies and global debates); and as a representational space which defines quality teaching. Developed through the analysis of stakeholder interviews, observations and documentation, a model of ITE practice shows an interplay between the provider's context, the community they serve, and the opportunities afforded for change. Universities can improve ITE through a focus on adaptive teacher education expertise.
