OB3 Research has been appointed by the Welsh Government to conduct research on teachers’ statutory induction in Wales.
The aim of the research is ‘to generate evidence which will help inform policy development and the implementation of induction arrangements in the future’.
There are three specific objectives for the research as follows:
understand the views and experiences of NQTs undertaking induction
understand the factors and/or conditions that can support or impede the effective implementation of statutory requirements of induction
identify ways in which induction could be strengthened.
It is expected that the research will be undertaken between October 2019 and February 2020.
