Collaboration with Initial Teacher Education (ITE) Providers
Action 1.C.1
1.C.11
Support for 65 MFL pre-service teachers
PPLI has worked on collaborating with Initial Teacher Education (ITE) providers and in particular with students
studying to become language teachers. Throughout the year PPLI provided guest lectures and training
sessions to students on programmes of initial teacher education (ITE) in Maynooth University, on digital tools
in Trinity College Dublin and tutored MFL students during school placement in Dublin City University. This
collaboration with pre-service teachers links with ITE providers and raises awareness of the work and
supports provided by PPLI.
