13 October 2023
Hilary talks about her journey as an educator and doles out some advice for early career teachers (ECTs): find the joy, discover your own teacher persona, and be unapologetically yourselves.
"We want our new teachers to train and stay and thrive in our classrooms."
Mark and Elaine speak to Hilary, the Programme Director of the Early Career Framework (ECF), and she talks about her role at the UCL Centre for Educational Leadership.
She talks more deeply about the ECF programme and emphasises the importance of the relationship between mentors and their ECTs.
She sets policymakers, school leaders and her UCL colleagues some challenges too – and shares her hopes that the ECF programme will improve teacher recruitment and retention.
