Abstract

School placements are a crucial element of all teacher training programmes however, student teachers’ opportunities to experience the benefits of direct school experience were impacted by school closures during the Covid-19 pandemic and the move to online teaching. This case study presents a successful example of the introduction of a virtual school experience, which included micro-teaching and school-led workshops. These activities ensured that student teachers continued to develop their professional skills and attributes in a collaborative way despite the pandemic. A rationale for the micro-teach activity, which used video technology to support peer assessment and reflective practice, is presented. Student teachers reflect on the value of the activities, and implications for future delivery are discussed.
