It then reports a survey of how students' ICT capability is being developed in 22 higher education courses in 15 higher education institutions, covering all the major subject areas. Four different ideal types of curriculum are proposed, to explain the variety of provision. Only one of them seems likely to fully achieve the task set by Dearing of preparing students

The plan was initially led by Professor Jane Cummings, Chief Nursing Officer for England and its overarching focus is to build and develop the capacity and capability that is needed across the whole primary care workforce, as well as building GPN capability to support improved and innovative approaches in delivering health and wellbeing. The basis of this work has now been taken up by the new CNO, Dr Ruth May, who maintains that: “Nursing staff will be at the heart of all plans to provide care fit for the 21st century and the nurse leadership voice is crucial to the broad health and care policy debate.” Nursing in Practice (2019) Within General Practice, it has been identified that there are significant variations between different practices in relation to orientation and induction of GPNs into this new work environment. Some nurses are offered structured courses that develop and steer them into the role gradually, while others are given as little as a week’s induction before being expected to work alone.

  • Probationary Policy
    PROBATIONARY POLICY RATIFIED BY THE TRUST BOARD IN: APRIL 2020 NEXT REVIEW DATE: APRIL 2020 April 2020 1 PROBATIONARY POLICY Person responsible for this policy: Angela Ransby Policy author: Angela Ransby Date to Trust Board: April 2020 Date Ratified: April 2020 Date to be Reviewed: April 2021 Policy displayed on website: Yes CEO Signature: A Ransby Trust Board Signature: R Fern Updates made: Date: Appendix 1 – updated induction programme 23 October 2020 added P3 – extension period amended to 9 months in 28 June 2021 line with contracts Introduction It is the Raedwald Trust’s policy to operate probationary periods for all new employees, and in some cases, at the Trust’s discretion, in respect of employees who have been transferred or promoted into different posts within the school. This policy allows both the employee and Raedwald Trust to assess objectively whether or not the employee is suitable for the role. The Raedwald Trust believes that the use of probationary periods increases the likelihood that new employees will perform effectively in their employment. April 2020 2 The Head Teacher is responsible for ensuring that all new employees are properly monitored during their probationary period. If any problems arise, the Head Teacher should address these promptly and in accordance with the policy. The employee should be made aware that some aspects of their performance or conduct is unsatisfactory. This will help prevent the problem from escalating and hopefully lead to sufficient improvements. Where the employee is the Head Teacher, the CEO shall be responsible for managing the probation process and determining whether their employment is confirmed or their employment is terminated.

This perceived need prompted the interest to carry out an empirical study to ascertain how induction programmes in the Erongo Region influenced the personal and professional growth of novice teachers. In order to augment the study, the following research objectives were formulated with an aim to determine the extent to which induction programmes influence the beginner teachers’ personal growth and professional development. In operationalising the study, the qualitative research methodology in which a phenomenological research design was used, was utilized to come up with the intended outcomes.

  • Induction Programme Settling in Your New Starter
    Induction Programme Settling in your new starter Frankly; it’s not just about recruitment. Fantastic, we have found you the perfect candidate for your role. Our job doesn’t end there. We want to support you and your new member of staff during the “settling in period”. Do you have a plan? Starting a new job and joining an established team can be terrifying and the fear of looking stupid debilitating. If the feeling of unease is strong enough you may lose the candidate you worked so hard to find. It is therefore worth spending the time on an effective induction. A well planned, well managed induction will avoid accidents and will increase the speed of full productivity as well as avoid costs incurred in unnecessary recruitment to replace the lost employee. The First Contact Usually the first contact will be with HR or a Line Manager. This person should aim to give a clear picture of the working of the business. • A warm welcome to the company – don’t leave your new starter hanging around waiting for you! • Pay – Address method of payment, holiday entitlements, hours of work and any benefits. • Take payroll information • Provide a staff handbook if available or make clear information on absence reporting, policy and procedures • Do they smoke? Communicate smoking areas and policies • Confirm induction process • Ensure the employee has opportunity to ask questions . Induction Checklist – HR/Line Manager 1. Management Structure Information 2. Take copies of ID, qualifications 3. Take emergency contact details 4. Give salary details 5. Method of salary payment 6.
