ECTs

Working closely with our delivery partners and schools across the region, we offer a supportive and collaborative programme that combines expert facilitation, practical classroom strategies and opportunities for professional reflection. We recognise the challenges schools face in supporting ECTs, so wherever possible we provide multiple programme and session options to help accommodate staffing commitments and ensure flexibility for participants.

Our ECT provision benefits from the breadth of experience of our facilitators, input from strategic partners, and the shared expertise of schools within our network. This collaborative approach ensures that ECTs gain access to diverse perspectives, high-quality training and a strong professional community throughout their induction journey.

Whether you are beginning your teaching career or supporting an ECT within your school, the opportunities outlined below are designed to help teachers build strong foundations for long-term success and impact.

Here to support you 

As teachers, we recognise that the first few years of teaching can be challenging, and difficult to find the right balance in a job that requires so much commitment. But we also know how joyous this job can be, and how much reward a career in teaching can bring. You will find that advice and support from the Hub comes with a healthy dose of real-life experience and an active desire to help wherever possible.

We want all our ECTs to be successful and thrive in their first teaching posts. To encourage this, we have carefully selected facilitators and trainers, all of whom are experienced teachers and/or school leaders who bring a wealth of experience to their ECF role.

Our aim is to provide a range of opportunities for our ECTs to build relationships with the Hub staff involved in their training, not just through the training sessions but also through our regular drop-in events and our online webinars. The Hub is here to provide support, guidance and encouragement; a regional touchpoint for all and not just a training provider.
