Notice Information

Notice Title

More Pathways to FE

Notice Description

The Foundation seeks to encourage final year undergraduates to consider a career in teaching in Further Education (FE). One approach to this is to get final year students to spend some time in colleges or Independent Training Providers (ITP), helping with the delivery. The Foundation is seeking partners to arrange this by means of offering financial incentives to the students and operational funding to the colleges/Independent Training Providers. As the partner might be working at a local level, we may be looking to more than two geographically separate partners to ensure a degree of regional coverage.
