To support Induction Tutors to navigate the ECF and AB registration process, the ECF team are offering two virtual after-school training sessions. These will take place before the DfE portal opens for new registrations on the 24th June 2024.

New Induction Tutor Training: Monday 17th June. 3.45pm – 4.45pm

Experienced Induction Tutor Updates: Thursday 20th June. 3.45 – 4.30pm

The ECF team at the Arthur Terry TSH, North Birmingham offers regular drop-ins each term to support Induction Tutors to resolve individual school queries.

During the Summer Term 2024 these sessions are taking place on:

Thursday 27th June 2024  9.00am – 9.45am

Tuesday 9^th July 2024   3.45pm – 4.30pm

Thursday 18^th July 2024  9.30am – 10.15am

Links to these virtual sessions are shared in the Induction Tutor newsletters at the start of each term. Please e-mail ect@atlp.org.uk if you can’t access the session.

To support Induction Tutors to be as effective as possible in their roles, we have created a guide to being an Induction Tutor, working through the different stages of the EEF’s Implementation Cycle.

Usernames and passwords to the Education Development Trust Portal are now being sent out to ECTs and mentors on a rolling basis. These are usually issued 24 hours after registration on the DfE portal. New ECTs starting the programme in September 2023 will receive their login details on the 4th September 2023. These details will be sent from ecf@educationdevelopmenttrust.com. Please ask your ECTs and mentors to check their junk, spam and clutter folders before requesting these details be resent.

Please make sure you have entered a valid e-mail address into the DfE portal for your new ECTs. The e-mail address listed on the DfE website will be the one which is used to issue usernames and passwords and to correspond with ECTs. This will also be their user name for the EDT portal.

Training events for your ECTs and Mentors will vary by cohort and group. Where possible, we have grouped ECTs to suit schools and minimise cover. All details of our training sessions can be found on the ECF events page, or by clicking the button below.
