Abstract
As a New Teacher Educator (NTE) within Further Education (FE), professional identity was brought abruptly into my consciousness as I scrutinised and even criticised my practice. The weight of responsibility for supporting a diverse group of trainees through their Initial Teacher Training (ITT) programme was not without anxiety and self-doubt. A number of challenges presented that required careful management on my part. This paper charts the complexity of the development of new professional identities within one ITT classroom and how collaborative enquiry was used effectively to build a supportive environment that nurtured both my transition from teacher to Teacher Educator and the trainees’ transitions from teachers in training to qualified teachers.
