NEW DfE Early Career Framework CIP Accredited Materials – Update

The DfE-accredited materials will no longer be available via the WordPress site from 30 April 2022.

Schools who want to access the DfE-accredited materials can now access them via the digital service: Support for early career teachers (education.gov.uk). 

As a reminder, the Department has also put together the following webpages for induction leads containing the handbooks and training outlines for the DfE-accredited materials. 

• Ambition Institute

• Education Development Trust

• Teach First

• UCL Early Career Teacher Consortium

Schools who want to access the DfE–accredited materials to deliver an early career framework (ECF) based induction should continue to select only one set of materials as the basis of their programme, and register with the DfE’s online service here to access their chosen DfE-accredited materials: Support for early career teachers (education.gov.uk)
