Newly Qualified Teacher (NQT) Induction 2016/17

Norfolk Appropriate Body (NAB) is delighted to continue to offer a service designed to attract Newly Qualified Teachers to the area, meet local need and give NQTs the best experience and support on offer. Click on this link for full details of our support package and how to register with us.

All maintained schools who have appointed an NQT have a statutory obligation to appoint an Appropriate Body to monitor and accredit NQT Induction in accordance with statutory guidance 2.21 and 2.24:

  • 2.21 - An NQT cannot start their induction until their appropriate body has been agreed.
  • 2.24 - Once an NQT has been appointed, the headteacher must notify the appropriate body in advance of the NQT taking up post. Failure to do so may delay the start of the induction period.

All educational institutions work with us and find statutory induction an invaluable process for providing a smooth transition from training to practice.
