EU-Wide Challenges in the Teaching Profession Teacher shortages and high average age of teachers Teaching training that is lagging behind the needs of the students in the 21st century Insufficient practical training of new teachers

5 5 1 2 NEWTT Consortium Impact Assessment National Educational Institutions Impact Assessment Austria Bulgaria The Basque Country Romania Latvia 5 NGOs from the network 1 2 Industry Organization Universities

Possible Solutions An innovative master’s degree which attracts new talents to the teaching profession An effective program which provides motivated candidates with the opportunity to teach and receive intensive and ongoing professional support Impact assessment and sharing of best practices/lessons learned Collaboration with government institutions in order to turn alternative pathways to teaching in national and EU-wide policies

MAIN HYPOTHESES 2. NEWTT trainees will improve their competence as teachers over the course of the pilots. 3. The overall competence of trainees within the NEWTT alternative pathway pilots will compare positively with those of beginning teachers in traditional programs. 4. At the end of the program the trainees from the NEWTT national pilots will finish their second year at school and will be willing to continue teaching or contributing to the impact of schools for the students they have taught. 1. The recruitment, selection and initial training methodologies of the NEWTT alternative pathway pilots will generate trainees who are suitable for teaching. Trainees in each national pilot will perform at least on par with initial teacher competence measures of beginning teachers in traditional programs.
