Everything a new teacher needs to feel organised, prepared and supported through their first year, in one great-value bundle. Designed for early career teachers in England, and ideal for mentors and ECT leads to give to their cohort. What's included (64 printable A4 pages): 1. ECT Guide: Your First Year (19 pages) Induction at a glance (updated for the June 2026 DfE guidance, including a clear breakdown of teaching, induction time and 10% PPA), the Teachers' Standards explained with an evidence tracker, a first-week checklist, month-by-month reminders, behaviour scripts, workload tips, wellbeing support, tricky situations, useful email phrases, and templates for mentor meetings, lesson reflections, progress reviews and term goals. 2. Teacher Planner 2026–27 (32 pages) Year at a glance with bank holidays marked, 12 monthly overviews, Week A and Week B timetables, weekly planner pages, a lesson plan, markbook, seating plan, parent contact log, meeting notes, to-do lists, and CPD and duties logs. 3. Parents' Evening Kit (13 pages) Preparation checklist, appointment schedule, pupil note sheets, a timed five-minute conversation guide, sentence starters, calm responses to tricky conversations, cut-out take-home cards for parents, and a follow-up tracker. Why this bundle? It covers the three things new teachers worry about most: induction, organisation and talking to parents. Everything matches in design, so it looks great printed and filed together in one binder. You save over 20% compared with buying each resource separately. Licensed for single-teacher use. For a whole ECT cohort, please buy one copy per teacher.
