'A touch of class': inclusion and exclusion in initial teacher education

Pages 13-26 | Published online: 10 Nov 2010
 

Abstract

This paper examines the way in which inclusion and exclusion are delicately yet irrevocably interwoven in the setting of Initial Teacher Education in the UK. Through a critical examination of one set of vivid experiences on a Post Graduate Certificate of Education (PGCE) (secondary) course, this paper will argue that inclusion/exclusion dilemmas sit alongside one another in an uneasy, shifting and unstable manner to pattern the process of becoming a teacher (although they can be seized and reworked by a brave-heart). The paper recounts the tale of Karen becoming a teacher.
