Beskrivning

This book provides an original mentoring/induction framework that spotlights equity in schools. In it, support-accessibility-collaboration-equity (SACE) is presented as a powerful structure for re-imagining mentoring/induction, especially for busy practitioners. Current mentoring models refer to the three pillars of support, accessibility, and collaboration (SAC). This book introduces an additional perspective, that is, the aspect of equity/justice in regard to career entry and socialization. The SACE framework extends the SAC model and fills a gap in the literature. Schools that integrate equity in mentoring/induction can anticipate the equitable support of new teachers, among other benefits. This research-informed work offers accessible theory on an important issue in the world of practice. The focus is on equity, a much-neglected area in mentoring/induction knowledge. Additionally, practical activities and case studies bring theory to life in everyday professional practice.This reader-friendly book appeals to a wide, global audience and is useful for early career teachers, mentors, teacher educators, and policymakers. It is of particular interest to those with a passion for social justice and equity in professional contexts. Practitioners seeking ways to improve their program design and delivery from an equity perspective can draw on this resource for their own purposes. University teachers and students in educational leadership and teacher education programs and mentoring/induction researchers can explore the book’s social justice ideas to enrich theory and practice.
