Abstract The Scientist-Teacher-Student Partnership (STSP) serves as a significant collaborative model in international science education, facilitating the deep integration of cutting-edge research with basic education. It plays a crucial role in enhancing students’ scientific practice capabilities and advancing teachers’ professional competence. This paper systematically reviews the evolution of STSP, tracing its development from the Student-Scientist Partnership (SSP) and the Scientist-Teacher Partnership (STP) to the expanded and deepened form of STSP. Despite its conceptual advancement, the implementation of STSP still faces practical challenges such as role conflicts, time constraints, insufficient resources, and institutional gaps. Drawing on international experiences, implications for China include: confronting practical dilemmas to avoid deviations in implementation; innovating cross-boundary mechanisms to overcome collaborative constraints; and strengthening institutional support to foster a culture of cooperation.
