Being an ECF Facilitator is such a rewarding and enjoyable role.  I have worked with an enthusiastic group of ECTs from six local secondary schools and we hold two meetings per half term.  After each session, I am invigorated by the ECTs’ passion for their teaching and I am always struck by how much they care about their pupils.  This role is non-judgemental and the facilitator helps the ECTs to move from theory to practice.    Not only do you get to develop teachers, your own teaching will be challenged as you engage with the most up to date research.  It has been a pleasure to watch my group of ECTs grow and develop in confidence over the course of the year.
