Ofsted’s recommendations: In order to improve trainees’ progress and attainment, the partnership should: • increase the proportion of trainees who are outstanding by the end of the training by developing further their ability to reflect on their own practice • reduce the variability in the quality of mentoring by ensuring all partners are clear about their responsibilities for monitoring the effectiveness of the feedback that trainees receive
The revised framework for judging the quality of an ITE partnership • ITE inspection is primarily about evaluating how well trainees are trained to be good or better teachers. • For each phase inspected, inspectors must evaluate: • the extent to which the ITE partnership secures consistently high-quality outcomes for trainees. • To make this judgement, inspectors must evaluate each of the three key judgements: • Outcomes for trainees • Quality of training across the partnership • Leadership and management of the partnership.
Partnership Manager Appointment for January.
Ofsted priorities • Improving Teacher Training for Behaviour • Supporting training for SEN, inclusion and EAL • Developing pupils’ literacy and numeracy skills • Training for the New Curriculum • Impact on pupil progress
