'A Study of the Induction Scheme for Beginning Secondary Teachers in Scotland' | Fiona Christie, Janet Draper and Jim O’Brien

Examining the Induction Scheme from a variety of different angles but with a focus on the experience of probationers and their supporters, this study illuminates the workings of the first year of one of the most significant recent developments in Scottish education. The study also provides an overview of the Induction Scheme and is designed to serve as the basis for professional dialogue on ways to build on the achievements of the first year.
