What is the Early Career Development Programme?

Since September 2021, the government has been funding an entitlement for all ECTs in England to access high-quality professional development at the start of their career with a view to greater teacher support and retention.

New teachers receive developmental support and training over 2 years instead of one, underpinned by the DfE’s Early Career Framework reforms.

How much does the Early Career Development Programme cost?

The programme is funded by the DfE and freely available for all state-maintained academies and schools in England.

What does the funding provide for?

The DfE funding covers the cost of the full 2-year induction training programme for ECTs and training for their mentor, as well as: 

  • 10% time-off timetable in Year 1 and a further 5% off timetable in Year 2 for ECTs to undertake induction activities including training and mentoring
  • Funding for mentors to spend time with ECTs in their second year of induction - this is based on 20 hours of mentoring across the academic year

How do I register my ECT and ECM for the Early Career Induction Programme?

AVÌìÌÃs access their DfE account and the latest information on registering their ECTs and ECMs .
