Academies, Independent Schools and Colleges

Hampshire Local Authority acts as the Appropriate Body for NQT Induction in Academies, Independent Schools and Colleges. These institutions are not automatically attached to an appropriate body to support with NQT Induction and would therefore need to enter into a contract with an appropriate body to be able to offer the NQT Induction year.

Hampshire provides this service and can offer this to you at a cost related to the number of NQTs that you have at your Institution. For this, Hampshire will work as the appropriate body for NQT Induction and carry out all of the required duties to a high standard. This includes registering your NQTs with the Teaching Agency (institutions listed above can not do this themselves), receiving, reading and registering assessment forms, giving advice and guidance on the NQT Induction year, making you aware of any changes to regulations and supporting you if there are concerns over the progress of any of your NQTs. NQTs and Induction Tutors would also have access to the excellent training that Hampshire provides.

Please contact Verity Reynolds at Education Personnel (EPS) on 02380 383530 or email nqt.info@hants.gov.uk if you would like to apply to contract with Hampshire or to discuss this further.
