Our Summer 2024 ITT into ECT conference was a great success. "It was lovely to meet all of our Cornwall trainees who are ready to start the ECF in September."

"The ECT training that I have attended have been well delivered and I feel this has progress my teaching practice significantly. I enjoyed the modules and the facilitators were always supportive."

Early Career Teacher Programme

The offer for early career teachers includes: 

• 2 years of funded, high-quality training freely available 

• additional funding for 5% time away from the classroom for teachers in their second year 

• a dedicated mentor and support for these mentors 

• funding to cover mentors’ time with the ECT in the second year of teaching 

• Appropriate Bodies will have a role in ensuring that a suitable ECTP of support is in place

Schools are expected to deliver an induction period that is underpinned by the ECTP 

There are 2 approaches that schools can choose from to enable the delivery of an ECTP induction:

• A provider-led programme. OneCornwall will fully administer this using The National Institute of Teaching’s materials 

• School led
