ECTP
Our ECTP Programme
The OneCornwall Early Career Teacher Programme provides ECTs with a fully funded, two-year training programme and Mentors with a fully funded one-year training programme. OneCornwall has chosen the National Institute of Teaching (NIoT) as our lead ECTP provider.
The NIoT is a sector-leading organisation with a reputation for excellence in teacher education and professional development. The programme is powered by ongoing, school-led research conducted by NIoT's in-house research team and continues to provide OneCornwall with the flexibility to shape delivery which is best suited to the region.
