We are running our highly commended NQT programme again this year albeit in a new online format. The programme has been adapted for online delivery and will be facilitated sessions led by experienced practitioners.

The first years of teaching are crucial for newly qualified teachers and as a Head or a Principal you will want to ensure that you are accessing a programme that will efficiently support the induction of new entrants into the profession.
