3 What is School Direct? School Direct is an opportunity for schools to influence the way in which initial teacher training (ITT) is delivered by creating more school-led training programmes that better meet the needs of schools and trainees. Schools will be able to recruit and select the trainees that best meet their and their partnership needs, with the expectation that those teachers will go on to work in the group of schools where they trained. The aim is to introduce choice into the ITT system by enabling schools to negotiate with their chosen ITT provider how they wish to use their School Direct place(s); the training programme which will be delivered and the funding they receive from the provider.

4 School Direct Programmes The School Direct Training Programme Open to all graduates Funded by tuition fees paid by the trainee Trainees with a 2:2 or above are entitled to a bursary The School Direct Training Programme (salaried) Employment-based route into teaching For high quality graduates with 3 or more years’ career experience Trainee employed as an unqualified teacher by a school Teaching Agency provides funding which the school can use to subsidise the trainee’s salary and/or training. Replaces the GTP from 2013-14.

Places by phase and subject – 7 th Sept to 28 th Sept 2012 Schools can request places in specific phases and subjects through a lead school from 7 September 2012 until 28 September 2012 inclusive. Places will be allocated and the TA will correspond with the group of schools through the lead school.

6 Requesting and receiving places School Direct is demand-led and schools should request subjects and phases where employment need is greatest. The TA will prioritise requests according to subject and phase to reflect national priorities and will need to work within the total number of places. The TA will also apply a number of criteria when considering requests for places. The main criteria will be: school quality, trainee quality, national priority subjects, cohort size and recruitment record. Further details can be found in section 1 of the guide to School Direct.

7 Training Schools choose which accredited ITT provider to work with – can be a HEI-led (university) or school-led (SCITT). School and ITT provide negotiate how the training is structured and agree who will do what and how the funding will be divided to reflect this. The respective roles and responsibilities should be set out in a partnership agreement between schools and the ITT provider. Provider is accountable and responsible for the recommendation of the award of qualified teacher status (QTS) – important as the school direct trainees will be included in any provider Ofsted inspection and monitoring.

11 Recruitment of trainees Schools can recruit locally through their own recruitment processes, work with their ITT provider to use its marketing and recruitment processes, or use a combination of the two. Recruitment processes should be high quality, open and transparent and will be subject to inspection by Ofsted. Schools should take the lead in interviewing and selecting candidates, but all School Direct candidates must meet the standard entry requirements of the school’s chosen provider, and be approved by the provider. Schools should ensure candidates for the School Direct Training Programme are fully aware of the fees they are likely to be charged.

13 Employment after training Prior to requesting places, schools are expected to: Review their previous employment patterns and use any current knowledge on staffing/budgetary issues to make an assessment of future need. This assessment should enable schools to request a number of places which broadly matches the future employment requirements within the school/partnership of schools. The schools(s) is expected to have a clear capacity to employ the trainees when they successfully complete their training programme. Throughout the process, schools should be aiming to employ trainees at the end of their training, barring any circumstances which prevent this e.g. changes to school structure.
