These schools are selected from a number of geographic areas including Kingston, Peterborough, Toronto, Waterloo and Ottawa.

During the extended practicum, candidates work closely with associate teachers and faculty members, and have a two-week rotation at the Faculty of Education in November.

The practicum consists of thirteen weeks of in-school practice as well as a three-week alternate practicum. The alternate practicum should normally parallel the candidate's Program Focus course, or an Educational Studies course if a Program Focus course is not being taken.
