The Strong start, Great teachers resource provides information, advice, guidance and ideas that can be used by schools to create customised, school-based induction programs that meet the needs of their beginning teachers in the critical first years of teaching.
The resource embeds the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers, the NSW Quality Teaching model and guidance in coaching and mentoring practices throughout its four phases.
The topics covered across the four phases, while not addressing every area of need, have been identified in the research and from the teaching standards as significant for beginning teachers.
