As well as running a very successful CPD programme for NQTS, Forest Way Teaching School Alliance are also an APPROPRIATE BODY for the professional induction of NQTs.
This full package supports NQTs in developing the skills to be effective teachers and also monitor their progress against the Teacher Standards.
Led by high calibre senior leaders with a proven track record of excellent NQT development and support.
All NQTs have a statutory entitlement to a well structured, monitored and supportive Induction year. This provides the transition between Initial Teacher Training and a full career in teaching.

As an Alliance we want the teachers who are starting their careers with us to be well supported and be able to develop into highly effective teachers. Together with schools we can put the structure for this into place.
In return NQTs have a responsibility to adopt a professional, reflective and self-evaluative manner and approach to their work.
We believe that the full package we offer can ensure that the outcomes for our newest teachers will be fulfilling both for them, their schools and the young people in their care.
FWTSA will:
Register the NQT with the Teaching Agency
​Hold a one day conference for NQTs at the start of the academic year
Provide mentor training at the start of the year and a mid year update
Monitor the progress of the NQT including a paired observation visit in a selection of schools
Make the final decision on the outcome of statutory induction for NQTs, in liaison with the Headteacher / Principal, and notify the Teaching Agency.
Maintain records and assessment reports and follow up with schools as necessary.
Provide all assessment forms and an NQT handbook
Undertake Quality Assurance of termly and final assessment forms
Support schools if there is a concern regarding an NQT’s progress against the Teacher standards.
