    Este artículo analiza las prácticas internacionales de los programas de formación del profesorado de primaria fomentados a través del acuerdo firmado entre el MEC español y la TDA inglesa.

Nuestro análisis se basará en la información obtenida a través de los cuestionarios que los estudiantes británicos y españoles respondieron al final de su estancia en los centros extranjeros

    This paper focuses on the international exchange placement of the primary teachers� training programme fostered through the agreement signed between the Spanish MEC and the English TDA. More specifically, as international teaching practice provides an exceptional opportunity for developing the intercultural dimension, the aim of the paper is to analyse the responses to the intercultural component central to the teaching placement of students from both countries as part of their training in the host country.

    Our analysis will be based on the information obtained from questionnaires that British and Spanish students answered at the end of their placement in foreign schools
