Description

*** New 26th May 2017 - Thank you for showing an interest in the framework. Unfortunately the release of the tender has been delayed and NCTL will release a revised timetable to all interested parties soon. We apologise for the delay and if you have any further queries please do not hesitate to get in touch via [email protected]. *** See 'Attachments' for full description.

This PIN is issued by The National College of Teaching and Leadership ('NCTL') on behalf of the DfE to engage the market in the provision of services for the recruitment of teachers or the pipeline thereof from outside of England, along with a bespoke package of acclimatisation and development.

Improvements in the economy, a shrinking graduate pool and greater competition in the labour market will make it more difficult for the education system to meet the demand for additional teachers domestically. It is on this basis that overseas recruitment will be pursued as a supplementary avenue of teacher supply. The framework will support schools to recruit and retain overseas teachers for subjects that are currently a challenge to recruit to.

The purpose of the PIN is to gather feedback from suppliers and stakeholders, which will help inform and shape the design of a framework. This engagement will also help the department to gauge the level of interest from the market and help inform our procurement strategy. Suppliers will need a combination of: teacher recruitment experience; expertise in supporting the transition and development of overseas trained or trainee teachers; understanding of the English education system and experience of the visa system and workforce; and experience of operating within overseas countries.
