Carter’s 10-year plan could solve teacher recruitment problems
National Schools Commissioner, Sir David Carter, has proposed a 10-year career plan in order to keep new teachers in the profession.
Carter laid out his plans at the Whole Education’s 7th annual conference in London on Friday 27 January, and believes it would help tackle a “desperate teacher recruitment and retention problem”, Tes has reported.
The concept outlines that new teachers should spend two year’s working in each of the following areas: induction; developing in the method and practice of teaching; preparing for a leadership role; fulfilling a leadership role and taking on a leadership role.
He believes the concept could see teachers become senior leaders by the age of 30 and help improve recruitment for teachers. However, he stated later that this was not official DfE policy.
