Which cohort am I in?
Each school has been placed into an ECF event group based on their phase or specialism. We also run bespoke groups for ECTs in EYFS/KS1 and ECTs working in specialist settings. Each of the groups is named after a Cadbury chocolate bar. Your event group name will have been communicated to you in your original welcome e-mail. If you are unsure which event group you are in, please let us know.
