ECF Blog – December 2022

By 2 December 2022No Comments

It has been a very busy Autumn term for ECTs and Mentors – thank you to everyone who continues to make the Early Career Framework a success across Cumbria.

Early Career Teacher Winter Survey

The ECT Winter Survey will soon be available on Brightspace for all 2021 and 2022 September starters to complete. (Not for those ECTs who started in January or April). The survey will be available from 16th December.

The survey should be completed by ECTs directly in Brightspace, as part of Module 3 for the 2022 cohort and Development Cycle 3 for the 2021 cohort. ECTs will need to complete the survey (or opt out) in order to access the rest of the content for this module.

Teach First have created the below guides about how to access the survey and the rest of the content for the module.
