La Trobe’s unique Nexus teaching program celebrates its first graduates – podcast

In an exciting development for the teaching profession, La Trobe University’s unique Nexus program has recently produced its first group of classroom-ready secondary school teachers. In their first year, students work part-time in schools and receive direct mentoring opportunities and professional development. Second year Nexus participants become full-time paraprofessionals in their schools, with a 0.8 teaching load and even their own class while they study.
