Why this programme?

With retention an issue across the education sector, investment in teachers’ development has never been more important, especially for those who are just starting out.  Flexibly delivered with the time constraints of an Early Career Teacher in mind, the programme comprehensively delivers all the content of the Early Career Framework and slots neatly into the schedule of an early career teacher.

• Face-to-face and online webinars with leading experts
• Regular meetings with an in-school mentor
• Self-study featuring rich multimedia content including videos, practical tasks and discussion activities

Cutting edge insight

Give your early career teachers and mentors access to the best available evidence, alongside internationally-recognised effective practice from around the world.

Curriculum

The Early Career Teachers programme is a blended learning experience. It provides teachers and their mentors with high quality, evidence-informed training and materials, alongside scaffolding to ensure effective mentoring.

Cost

The Early Career Teachers programme is funded by the Department for Education. For most schools the Early Career Framework is provided at non cost to the school.

Appropriate Body – All ECTs must have an Appropriate Body. All DDAT Trust schools use Flying High Appropriate Services. The ECT is registered through ECT Manager by the school. The link for Flying High ECT Manager is here. You will also use this link to write the reports for the ECT, against the Teacher’s Standards. For Trusts outside the DDAT Trust, you can find the lists of appropriate bodies here.
