Description

Research project to develop a detailed understanding of the possible demands and impacts on schools of hosting trainee teachers and employing newly qualified teachers (NQTs).
Each of the five main initial teacher training (ITT) routes will be investigated as part of this research. Each route requires a different percentage of the training year spent in placements and there are differences in the number of placements completed between each route. Potential variations within each route will also be considered; for example, there are potential differences and implications for schools working with trainees at different stages in their training. There are also variations in the responsibilities expected of trainee teachers' depending on if they are on salaried or fee paying routes. Schools' experiences of employing NQTs will also be explored.
The Contractor shall use all reasonable endeavours to achieve the following project aims:

• Understand schools' experiences of hosting trainee teachers and employing NQTs and understand if this varies across the five main ITT routes;
• Identify trainees' and NQTs' expectations and experiences of their training and induction and how this varies across the five main ITT routes
