Development
The Appropriate Body will provide independent quality assurance of the ECT’s two-year induction, and this will include checking that the ECT is receiving a programme of support and training based on the Early Career Framework.
Your choice of Early Career Framework professional development programme is independent from your Appropriate Body. We welcome ECT registrations from all schools regardless of the ECF professional development programme you have chosen.
Haringey Education Partnership has a strong history of delivering Appropriate Body services to schools local to us in North London, and are now working in partnership with the Red Kite team to offer the highest quality services to continue this offer as an option to our schools; Red Kite are the designated Appropriate Body and will be supported by us to work with our local schools.
Our team is led by HEP’s Lead for Teacher Development, Leadership and Governance, Anne Etchells. Anne has over thirty years of experience in the primary sector, and is a former primary Headteacher. She has been leading on ECF and AB provision for the last two years. Fay Jackson is a Support Partner for the ECF and AB, with decades of experience in this field. Marlena Wright is our Project Manager for Teacher Development and can support schools and ECTs with their queries.
