## Description

A graduate training scheme for teachers focussed on SET \(Science Engineering and Technology\), with an emphasis on those careers within the relevant routes of the Sainsbury Review\. Whilst implementation of the Review is two academic cycles away, this is the ideal time to seek to grow the capacity of organisations who wish to be ready to benefit from the changes the Review will bring\. Two consortia/hubs will be sourced \(led by general Further Education \(FE\) college, large Independent Training Providers \(ITPs\) or Higher Education Institutions \(HEI\)\)\. These consortia will work to recruit and train, support and mentor graduates who wish to enter the teaching profession to deliver a majority of teaching within the SET subject areas\. Consideration will be given to those with sufficiently developed mathematics capability that they may also be able to work as GCSE maths specialist teachers alongside their core SET teaching, but this is a secondary aim\. The scheme will support ancillary cost but not salary costs - support with recruitment, initial teacher education \(ITE\), mentoring and professional support will be met through the programme\.
