Our Early Career Framework Programmes aim to develop knowledge, understanding and confidence, supporting ECTs with a range of strategies to help them thrive in their first years of teaching, creating a strong foundation for their future careers in the classroom.
There are three approaches schools can choose from to enable the delivery of an ECF based induction. It is up to the headteacher to choose the approach that best suits the needs of their ECTs and mentors. We are working in partnership with Ambition Institute and The Education Development Trust (EDT) to deliver the full induction, fully funded programmes which deliver the Early Career Framework reforms for Early Career Teachers and train their mentors.
Schools choosing to write / deliver their own programmes will need to ensure their programmes are fidelity checked by our appropriate body service in advance of an ECT commencing their programmes. There is a cost to this service.
