First Published in 1999. Every school employing newly qualified teachers (NQTs) from 1999 onwards is required to provide them with structured support and training. This book offers comprehensive guidance to classroom teachers, heads of department and senior managers on effective induction and mentoring. Much of its content will also relate to the mentoring of student teachers on school experience. Organised into three key parts, the book examines the tools and responsibilities of induction and mentoring, the development of good mentoring relationships and the management of support and training. Based on good practice developed in schools and training courses, it will serve the practical and immediate needs of mentors and induction managers, while also helping them to reflect on the wider, underlying issues involved in getting teaching careers off to a good start. Appropriate reference is made to the Teaching and Induction Standards, Career Entry Profiles and the DFEE's new arrangements for induction.

Many studies of teacher motivation have been conducted in different contexts over time. However, until fairly recently there has not been a reliable measure available to allow comparisons across samples and settings. This has resulted in an abundance of findings which cannot be directly compared or synthesised. The FIT-Choice instrument offers the opportunity to examine motivations across settings. The various studies in this book suggest that people who choose teaching as a career are motivated by a complex interaction of factors embedded within communities and cultural expectations, but seem generally to embrace a desire to undertake meaningful work that makes for a better society. Unlike some careers, where rewards are in the form of salary and status, by and large these factors are not strong drivers for people who want to become teachers. They want to work with children and adolescents, and believe they have the ability to teach.
