As a new Early Career Teacher (ECT) or Newly Qualified Teacher (NQT) we are sure you will want to ensure you make a positive, impactful, and encouraging impression on your learners, colleagues, and community. Being a professional ECT or NQT is not always easy and there will be lots of touch points where you will need to consider how you are perceived.
Our experts Helen and Andy have navigated through this journey and also support many ECTs on a daily basis. Here they discuss the importance of role modelling, working on relationships, the support that is available to ECTs through their mentors, the Early Career Framework, and also your support network.
