Teaching is one of the best, most satisfying and worthwhile of the professions. It is also highly demanding and challenging. For this reason NQTs have a number of statutory and other entitlements, specifically designed to ensure that their induction year provides a structured introduction into the profession and the best possible start to their career.
The experience in that first, crucially important year can be one where schools harness, use effectively and celebrate the enthusiasm, energy, commitment, new ideas and talent that NQTs bring to the role, or it can unfortunately in some cases be a disappointing and demoralising experience.
The best schools recognise the importance of growing and supporting new teachers and most importantly these schools recognise that they need support, encouragement and working conditions which enable them to gain appropriate experience and confidence in their first school placement.
