Reihe: Essential Guides for Early Career Teachers

This go-to manual for the Initial Teacher Training and Early Career Framework (ITTECF) offers an accessible, supportive set of principles for new teachers. It breaks down the statements of the ITTECF and the evidence base behind them to present a set of core beliefs and ideas about what works in teaching.

The ITTECF takes the Teacher Standards and breaks them into Learn That and Learn How To statements to guide the development and education of pre-service and early-career teachers over the three years of initial training and induction into the profession. The framework comprises of statements drawn from the best-available evidence and research within education. This book summarizes the key evidence behind each statement in accessible language, drawing on the main findings, and also suggests practical strategies for the application of the theory into classroom and school-based practice.

Through summaries, reflective activities, case studies, and practical strategies, this book is an essential guide for trainee and early career teachers and will support them as they develop and hone their practice.
