Early Careers Teacher (ECT)
Bury Grammar School (BGS) works in partnership with the Independent Schools Teacher Induction Panel (ISTIP) to provide support for Early Career Teachers (ECTs) through a well-developed and appropriately sequenced Early Career Framework (ECF). This framework is based loosely on the resources provided by 'Teach First' but adapted to meet the needs of ECTs at BGS.
"I have felt extremely well supported as an ECT at Bury Grammar School, due to the huge amount of support and guidance provided by my mentor and the wider staff body. I feel like this support is only there if I want or need it, as I am also given a lot of freedom and autonomy in my practice. This is a fantastic school for professional development."
