Key Policy Issues
This section will be of interest to policy makers who wish to consider ways of:
-
Setting an agreed professional standard that all trainee teachers must meet
before they enter the teaching profession, whatever their background or the
training route they choose
-
Defining what new teachers must know, understand and be able to do so as to
teach effectively from their first day as a qualified teacher
-
Ensuring that everyone involved in assessing trainee teachers has a common
understanding of what is involved in meeting the QTS Standards
-
Ensuring consistently high standards of training by defining what is required
of all those who provide initial teacher training programmes
-
Improving the recruitment and retention of teachers
