Initial teacher training for further education: an overview of 2004-2008 inspections
23 Feb 2009
The initial training of further education teachers presents an overview of the 2004–2008 inspection cycle of initial teacher training for further education, including national awarding body qualifications.
The report sets out the changes and developments over the four-year cycle of inspection, including the recent major structural reforms which were significantly influenced by inspection findings. It also evaluates the extent to which providers visited in 2007/08 have modified their programmes and evaluated their provision so that trainees are equipped with the skills and competencies needed for high-quality teaching.
