Abstract
This small-scale exploratory qualitative investigation highlights the differential experiences of new teachers classified as occasional (supply/substitute). We address the lack of formal professional support offered to them and review the implications for their inclusion within an online Community of Practice (CoP). The findings spotlight the participants' resilience and higher than normal levels of social insight as being way finding methods of coping.
