How to Balance Policy and Pedagogy in Induction Processes

Episode 131: This week on Thinking Deeply about Primary Education, I'm joined by Lloyd Williams-Jones as we explore the importance of teacher induction programs and discuss how we can support teachers who are new to our schools. As part of the chat we discuss... 1. What is induction and what should be included?  2. What does induction typically look like and what are the possible strengths and weaknesses? 3. How might we better induct new teachers into our school? How do we balance policy with pedagogy?  4. If you had only 3 slots what would you fill them with and how would you prioritise them? 5. How do we know if induction has been successful? Whether you're new to the profession or an experienced senior leader, you won't want to miss this one!
