Question to the Department for Education:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government when they will announce the membership and remit of the group charged with developing a framework of content for initial teacher training; and whether the group will include a balance of representation from university teacher education institutions and school-centred initial teacher training organisations and schools.
In the government response to the publication of the Carter Review, the Secretary of State for Education commissioned an independent working group, comprising of expert representatives from the sector, to develop a core framework of initial teacher training content. The Secretary of State will be announcing the membership of the group shortly, along with further details about the remit of this work.
