Independent Schools
ECTs in Independent schools
The Department for Education (DfE) has committed to supporting all teachers early in their careers with the introduction of the 2 year Early Career Induction Programme. Although Independent Schools are not required to offer statutory induction to their early career teachers (ECTs), we know that the schools we work with are committed to ensuring their ECTs receive the best support available.
