If DfE decides to commence any competitive process(es) as contemplated by this notice, a separate notice(s) will be published at the relevant time. DfE has previously published its commitments to Further Education (FE) providers in the Skills for Jobs: Lifelong Learning for Opportunity and Growth White Paper. The paper identifies a need to ensure all FE providers are well managed, governed and have the best quality teachers and lecturers. In doing so, we will ensure that post-16 further education students have access to world-class technical and vocational education, providing the skills both individuals and employers need for the future economy. ### Purpose of this notice The purpose of this PIN is to inform the market that DfE is considering how best it supports teachers in Further Education provides who teach learners who are continuing to work towards Level 2 in English and maths. Achieving a level 2 qualification in both maths and English, through GCSE or Functional Skills Qualifications (FSQs), helps students to progress to further study, training and skilled employment. The maths and English Condition of Funding ('resit' policy) ensures that all 16 to 19-year-olds have the best chance of achieving this standard and get the necessary support to do so. DfE is committed to this policy and therefore it is important that teachers in Further Education providers have access to the best development which focuses on the skills needed to help resit learners achieve their potential. Early in the summer DfE intends to invite bids for grant funding from organisations whose policies, objectives and activities are aligned to those of the DfE, to better achieve the desired outcomes for FE providers and learners in England. This will be achieved by the provision of continuous professional development to teachers of resit learners that is focussed on pedagogy, curriculum, and assessment training, delivered by skilled and experienced experts ### How to engage The Department for Education is holding an introductory market engagement webinar via Microsoft Teams at 11am on Tuesday 26 April 2022 which will run for approximately 45 minutes.
