First ITT applications data from latest cycle out today. Waaay too early to draw any strong conclusions as the window has only been open 6 weeks & will stay open until next summer [1/3]

Yes to this! Absolutely love working with the @EducationEACT Primary and Secondary assurance boards on aligning approaches to teaching across school/s. Powerful things happen when we all do small things the same way.
