Abstract
Since 2009, the PI and her team have been building an evidence-base to help inform policies on, and practices of initial teacher education (ITE) programmes in the National Institute of Education (NIE) and early career professional learning of local teachers in five research projects. Building on and extending the team's earlier work on ITE and early career teacher learning, this project intends to characterise the impact of experience—both cumulative and episodic—on career-long development and sustainability of Singaporean teachers. Understanding teacher career development and sustainability beyond the early career phase will become more important as the age of Singapore’s teaching force increases, in line with the nation’s demographic trends. This project aims to contribute to the chain of evidence linking ITE with subsequent within-career experience to understand whether and why teachers’ professional identity, competence, and commitment change over time.
