Elizabeth White taught science in schools in England before moving into teacher education through mentoring and tutoring on the Graduate Teacher Programme. She was involved in setting up the School Direct Initial Teacher Education Programme in the School of Education at the University of Hertfordshire, where she leads mentor development and partnership work. She realizes how few readily accessible resources are available to those leading teacher educator development. She is currently co-leading an international research project on school- and university-based teacher educators working in partnerships and their professional development needs.
