Recently Qualified Teacher (RQT) Programme

Supported Online Professional Development for Recently Qualified Teachers (RQTs) in non-BSO accredited British International Schools.

Why Consider RQT Support?

While any British international school can employ Early Career Teachers (ECTs) which were formally known as NQTs, only those schools who have completed BSO inspection within the last 6 years are eligible to offer formal, DfE reported induction. This programme of support is designed to allow aspiring BSO schools to support their inexperienced teachers ahead of formal induction once their BSO accreditation is confirmed.

The year-long programme allows Recently Qualified Teachers (RQTs) to consider their own development against each of the UK Teachers' Standards in detail and self-reflect on their performance in order to thrive as a teacher in a British international school. It also supports those employed in non-BSO schools to build a portfolio of evidence to support a potential fast-tracked ECT induction in the future.

The online programme tutor will work with participants on a monthly basis providing helpful insight, online CPD and the ability for teachers to self-reflect on their performance in the classroom. The tutor will also offer professional guidance on how candidates can ensure maximum impact through their teaching.
