UCL ECF Full Induction Programme: Year 2
In Year 2 our ECTs deepen their knowledge through a spiral curriculum. They revisit previous content, this time personalising and extending their learning by co-creating their own questions to investigate. We call this a practitioner inquiry approach.
Module 6: Enable pupil learning
Working with your mentor, co-create a question to investigate such as: what are the most effective non-verbal signals to help me manage behaviour? We call this an exploratory inquiry.
Module 7: Engage pupil learning
Working with your mentor, co-create a question to investigate such as: to what extent do regular quizzes help my students remember key vocabulary? We call this an exploratory inquiry.
Module 8: Evaluative inquiry focusing on ECF standards 4, 5 and 6
Select a specific area of practice to investigate in more detail. Wow your colleagues with your evaluation.
Module 9: School visits
Expand your horizons by visiting two different settings to compare with your current context.
