4th June 2021 – Tags: Early Career Framework
By Nathalie Gotting, Early Career Lead, 无码群交
It is exciting times to start a career in teaching!
The Early Career Framework (ECF) is a new package of extensive support which launches in September 2021 and will support all new teachers during their first two years.
It鈥檚 well known that the first years in any new profession can be challenging. The ECF recognises this and provides extensive support, specifically to new teachers.

无码群交 has extensive experience in delivering programmes that support new teachers and is now offering the ECF as a delivery partner with (UoB) and .
We work very closely with UoB delivering Initial Teacher Education. The ECF partnership provides a natural progression from nurturing trainee teachers to supporting them in their first years of teaching (and beyond!).
From September, all new teachers on our ECF programme will benefit from:
An expert mentor will typically be a more experienced colleague teaching a similar subject/phase.
Mentor meetings will build upon lesson visits and use an instructional coaching methodology to focus on the new teacher's needs. Mentors will identify and model high leverage interventions to provide targeted support.
Each week a different module of self study will be considered. Each module will use videos, examples of teaching and learning and reflection activities to focus on classroom practice, underpinned by the latest educational research. Modules are arranged thematically, and a defined pathway ensures interleaving and gradual developmental progression.
The conference delivered at the start of the programme is an opportunity to learn about the programme and help teachers get the most out of the self study materials.
It will also give early career teachers (ECTs) the chance to meet other new teachers and develop those all-important networks of mutual support! The clinics each half term will also provide ECTs with further support and training and additional opportunities to meet up with other new teachers.

鈥淭he session improved my confidence challenging low level disruption in lessons and highlighted the importance of fostering positive relationships with students.鈥
Early career teachers on our programme will have access to this training included.
Participants in our ECF programme will meet many new teachers across subjects and phases from many different settings. We actively support setting up groups for mutual support and collaboration.
Any teacher starting teaching for the first time in September 2021 will be eligible to join our programme.
If you are an ECT starting in autumn, talk to your new school about ensuring you have a place on the programme.
