The brief

Essex Teacher Training requires an arrangement that will enable trainees to achieve 120 credits at Level 7 and / or a PGCE for the academic year 2015-16, with the opportunity to complete a full Masters Degree during the early stage of their teaching career.

Precise details will depend on individual University recommendations but it is our expectation that they would include a focus on pedagogy, action research and preparation for further study along with an RPL element.

6.1 Essex Teacher Training is seeking to commission a HE partner to deliver and quality assure a PGCE programme for our SCITT and School Direct Trainees.

Currently trainees complete 120 Level 7 credits in their training year.

They do this by completing 2, 30 credit modules and an RPL arrangement for the QTS component of the programme resulting in the award of a further 60 credits.

Trainees then have the option to complete a 60 credit research module to complete their Masters in Education.
