Are you considering Early Career Teacher (ECT) Professional Development Opportunities? 

The Academies Enterprise Trust are looking for Early Careers Teachers to join our talent pool. By signing up you will have access to any opportunities that are available in London, Essex, South West, West Midlands & North. You will only need to sign up once and we will manage the rest of the process for you.

As one of the largest trusts, with 57 academies across all phases and settings, AET are able to offer a rich contextualised experience to all ECTs, along with opportunities to build a professional learning network like no other. 

As part of our ECT Development Programme, we offer: 

1. Individuality and collaboration

All AET schools are unique, we have Primary, Secondary, all through and Special schools. As a result of this we offer subject-specific and phase-specific support, designed with the PTI (Prince’s Teaching Institute) and subject matter experts.

2. Flexibility 

All ECTs will have access to online Learner Management Systems for the ECF programme but also a wider set of skills and knowledge -currently over 450 courses are available across a wide range of subjects, in addition to the ECF.

3. Support from a trained mentor

At AET, we acknowledge the importance of ECTs having a trained mentor to support them throughout their Early Career Framework (ECF) two-year development programme. All mentors are provided with a high quality development programme of their own based on an Instructional Coaching model to best support their ECTs.

4. Subject Specialist

The AET teachers and leaders who will support you are experts in their field and subject and we combine this with research-led professional learning.

5. Support from Ambition Institute

At AET, Ambition Institute supports early career teachers through the implementation of the Early Career Framework (ECF). This framework ensures that teachers at the beginning of their careers receive two years of evidence based development, allowing them to grow and thrive.

Ambition Institute has developed a carefully structured and evidence informed curriculum for teachers and mentors, focusing not only on what teachers learn but also on how they learn.

Through the implementation of the Early Career Framework, early career teachers at AET academies benefit from additional support and training, including one-to-one mentoring from experienced colleagues. Mentors themselves also receive support and guidance on how to effectively fulfil their roles and assist their early career teachers.

Early Career Teachers (ECTs) within the AET will take part in face to face conferences and virtual clinics to ensure they are connected to the AET network at all times alongside gaining access to the innovative Steplab platform, specifically designed by teachers for teachers. This accessible learning platform provides structured support, ensuring that mentors can deliver high-quality mentoring without increasing their workload.

Closing Date: 16th July 2023

Academies Enterprise Trust and all of our academies are committed to ensuring the highest levels of safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our pupils, and we expect all our staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We adopt a robust, fair and consistent recruitment process which is inline with Keeping Children Safe in Education guidance. This includes online checks for shortlisted candidates. All offers of employment are subject to an Enhanced DBS check, references, and where applicable, a prohibition from teaching check.

Academies Enterprise Trust embraces diversity and promotes equality of opportunity. Job share, part time and flexible working opportunities will be considered.

We are a Disability Confident Employer and there is a guaranteed interview scheme for candidates with disabilities who meet the minimum selection criteria.
