Objev podobné jako Great Expectations (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition) - Charles Dickens

Following on from the seminal book The Early Career Framework: Origins, Outcomes and Opportunities (2022) edited by Tanya Ovenden-Hope, this new book written by Tanya Ovenden-Hope and Holly Kirkpatrick explores the expectations set by the Teacher Recruitment and Retention Strategy (2019) and insights into the experiences of those closest to the ECF. Ovenden-Hope and Kirkpatrick examine the ''golden thread'' of teacher training and professional development since 2019, focusing on the lived experiences of ECTs and mentors in Year Two of the ECF, and offering provocations to understand the successes and failures that led to a revised framework of training and development with the ITTECF. ECT attrition remains high in England with one quarter leaving teaching within three years. As a strategy for teacher recruitment and the retention, it will be interesting to see if the ITTECF does better than its predecessor frameworks.
