What is the cost for the Early Career Framework?
The Department for Education is funding all training, at no cost to schools. All state funded schools offering statutory induction will receive additional funding to deliver the Early Career Framework reforms.
The funding will cover:
- 5% off timetable in the second year of induction for all early career teachers to undertake induction activities including training and mentoring.
- Funding for mentors to spend with early career teachers in the second year of induction – this is based on 20 hours of mentoring across the academic year.
Please see the training for mentors section for full details of the mentoring programme.
