Here you will find a set of empirically grounded design principles for planning and structuring school internships abroad (SIAs) in music education. Emerging from seven iterative cycles of design-based research conducted within the pan-European, Erasmus+ funded TEAM project, the five principles address key aspects of SIA organisation, including clarity of expectations, inter-institutional collaboration, holistic cultural engagement, participation in school life beyond the classroom, and multilingual communication in the music classroom. Learning Objectives: - To be able to establish clear expectations, roles, and requirements for a school internship abroad in collaboration with all relevant stakeholders. - To be able to design and structure a school internship abroad that supports intercultural learning and teacher professionalization. - To be able to facilitate meaningful collaboration between sending and receiving institutions across all phases of the placement. - To be able to create conditions that enable student teachers to engage holistically with the host school and its cultural context. - To be able to integrate multilingual and non-verbal communication strategies into the planning and support of music teaching placements abroad.
