Intent: To provide early career teachers in the first two years of their career with:
- high quality, structured support in order to begin the journey towards becoming an expert
- the tools to contribute to the development of knowledge, practices and working habits to set participants up for a fulfilling and successful career in teaching.
Implementation: The programme will:
- be delivered through a workshop approach which will review research and best practice to enhance knowledge in each of the four domains
- provide practical ideas for skill development
- thread the theme of professional behaviours and identity through the programme
- evaluate the evidence base through critical thinking and embed reflective practices to develop their expertise
- establish a supportive network of colleagues at similar career stages and so work collaboratively to improve specific areas of their own practice.
Impact: Following the event, early career teachers will have an increased understanding of: the best available evidence of behaviour management; pedagogy; curriculum and assessment and have developed their own skills and professional behaviours.
