Your requirements
The statutory guidance on ECT induction doesn't say that you need a specific policy, but you must make sure you're compliant with other requirements. Use our ECT induction checklist to help you.
ECT induction is not included in the list of statutory policies published in the governance guides for maintained schools and academy trusts.
We previously listed this policy as statutory because it was included in the DfE's guidance on statutory policies, but this was withdrawn in March 2024 and replaced by the governance guides linked above.

Our policy was developed in consultation with the union NAHT and it's:
- Designed for you to adapt to suit your school's context
- In line with good practice and requirements that schools offer an Early Career Framework (ECF)-based induction programme
- Approved by Forbes Solicitors
