The ITT Reform Programme aims to ensure that there are enough, well-prepared, well trained, and confident newly qualified teachers in the system. Central to this is ensuring that initial teacher training (ITT) is of the highest possible quality. The ITT Reform Programme is at the forefront of delivering significant reforms to raise the standard of ITT provision in England and plays a key role in managing standards through regulatory measures. The July 2021 Initial teacher training (ITT) market review report and the corresponding Government Response in December 2021 sets out DfE's reform aims for delivering high quality ITT provision. As a result, existing and potential new providers who wish to participate in ITT delivery from September 2024 must apply and pass a rigorous two-stage accreditation process through which they must demonstrate their understanding of and ability to deliver new ITT quality requirements. A flexible pool of up to 15 ITT Market Quality Associates is required to help support the ITT market as we progress through this re-shaping of the ITT market. Associates will play a key role in delivering DfE's ITT policy ambition, providing expertise and assurance that the new ITT market has high-quality design, content, and delivery in line with the ITT Core Content Framework and new quality requirements. Due to the current workload, we are adding to our capacity of current Associates to support the requirements of the Reform.
