As part of North of Tyne Combined Authority’s education programme the combined authority is looking to roll out three pilot projects in the following areas:
- Blended learning
- Mental health support
- Closing the literacy gap
NTCA are working with researchers Wavehill on a mapping exercise to understand more about current practice within schools and this will be crucial in informing the development of the pilot projects. There is never an ideal way to gather this sort of information, or indeed an ideal time, however, the survey is mostly multiple choice questions and will help NTCA make informed decisions in these key areas.
If you feel you have the time to provide input into these future projects please see the link below:

The new Agreed Syllabus for Northumberland schools will be launched on 28 June 2022. Venue TBC. If you could arrange for the RE Lead to be available please.
The induction for newly qualified teachers during the Covid-19 pandemic guidance previously stated that a one-off payment was available to all state-funded schools with NQTs completing their induction in summer 2021.
This has been changed to all state-funded schools that have, or had, an NQT who completed their induction between the summer term of 2021 and the spring term of 2022. Schools will receive this funding as part of their normal payments from the Education and Skills Funding Agency.
Dates and booking for the summer term Chairs' & Vice Chairs' Briefings are now available here.
