Teaching school

17:(pilot) 'teaching school' was Kenilworth Community College, on the Sunshine Coast of Australia, under the leadership of Associate Professor David Turner, then the schools principal. The Teaching School is a parallel to the ‘teaching hospital’ in medicine, where the collective capacities and endeavours of a school (ie K-12) and a university (in this case an education faculty) are harnessed through formal partnership to create a sophisticated and enduring community of practice focused on teacher preparation and teaching improvement (Turner & Lynch, 2006; Lynch, 2012). In the medical model, professors and clinicians work side-by side as the constituents of a multi-dimensional ‘medical’ organisation that is sharply focused on practice excellence, improvement, and research. The same logic applies for the teaching school in that it is a new environment for teachers to be prepared (in-service and pre-service) and education research to be undertaken and disseminated for teacher consumption. With the medical teaching hospital construct in mind, the teaching school then conjures an arrangement where a stratified workforce emerges. Think student teachers, interns, associate teachers, working with registered teachers, professors and the numerous advisors from ‘regional education offices’, in a context of inter-related teaching, learning and research assignments. This stratification also represents a continuum of developing expertise, increased site capacities and staff positioning for effects in the teaching school and in the network of schools (or satellite TSs) that are co-opted for global practice scope, scale and impact. On a parallel plane this stratification represents a significant resource and capacity for rethinking how pupils (K-12) in the school might be taught. 157: 122:
