Good morning!
With 2021-22 National Professional Qualification cohorts now full and delivery underway, Exceed Teaching School Hub is already working hard behind the scenes to prepare for 2022-23 whilst not losing sight of our current programmes and cohorts. We still have a few Early Career Teachers joining our fully funded Full Induction Programme with Ambition Institute and registrations to our school-led Appropriate Body service keep coming. We are quality assuring our programmes; supporting participants and facilitators; enhancing our registration processes for next year whilst working with the DfE and partners to provide feedback on their systems; scheduling conferences and events for our 2022-23 programmes; considering our wider teacher development offer for the next academic year; and more! We will reopen registration for the 2022-23 cohorts of the ECT programme and NPQs as soon as we get the green light from the DfE. This is closed for all providers at present.
We continue to collaborate with the Bradford Opportunity Area. A new offer is emerging that we hope to bring to trusts in the coming weeks. We think this is exciting and will help the sustainable legacy of the Opportunity Area.
Huge congratulations to everyone involved in last week's Bradford for Teaching LIVE! events, including the ITT Conference on Friday 18th March. I was delighted to be able to talk to trainees about the Early Career Framework. A copy of my presentation is provided below. There are more events this week, including two further NPQ taster events (Tuesday and Thursday). Check out the website for details: https://www.bradfordteaching.org/
Best wishes
