Early Career Teachers

“I could not think of a better place to successfully start my teaching career than Chadwell Heath Academy.”

Mr Niall Murphy NQT/ECT

At Chadwell Heath Academy we welcome the energy, creativity and vibrancy that Early Career Teachers bring to our school. We fully acknowledge that this is a very rewarding role to undertake albeit, a challenging one.

As an ECT working at Chadwell Heath Academy you will benefit from the DfE full induction programme with our partners being Walthamstow School for Girls, UCL and our Appropriate Body being the London Borough of Havering. As well as having a mentor for weekly one to one sessions you will also have the support of an Induction Tutor and member of the SLT.

The programme incorporates specific CHA meetings but also cluster and Hub sessions as well as personalised inset and regular observation and feedback. 

This bespoke package of support allows you as an ECT to grow into the role at your own pace and ensure that you are meeting the teaching standards in order to successfully complete your Induction.

At Chadwell Heath Academy we see your ECT Induction programme as the start of a journey and have a proven track record of nurturing our ECT staff through their induction and then on into posts of responsibility along both the departmental and pastoral routes.
